I think we can bid a smug farewell to this (http://nablopomo.ning.com.)  It's safe to say that I did NOT cover the spread on that one.  And we can safely conclude that prolific, I am not.  Not that I don't have excuses, bc I do.  Aplenty.  Aplenty, aplenty, aplenty.  (Non)excuse number one would be that I've been fixating on just exactly where I stand on things in life.  "Things in life," yeah, can't really pin it down much more specifically than that.  Well, I could.  But that would require some sort of deliberation and decisiveness on my part.  And I think we all know that we're not going to squeeze THAT out of me today with a juicer and a metric ton of motivation.  And, yes, I am most assuredly NOT proud of my lack of impetus lately.  It may sound like I'm brushing this mildly alarming trend off with more moderately alarming breeziness, but it DOES bother me.  It really bothers me that, at least with certain things, I seem to require external motivators to get me started chugging along the tracks.  It makes me feel soft and smooshy and spineless.  (Like one of THESE - http://www.seaslugforum.net/)  All NOT flattering things.  NOT things I would include in a "Where Are They Now?" blurb or a personal ad.  Unless I were shooting to appeal to the brutal, unfiltered honesty crowd.  And let's face it, no one wants to date THEM.
