Three steps to kill your blog:
1. Go to therapy. Seriously, if you just don't want to blog like ever again, have some female mid-thirties MFCC crawl into your brain every week where she fishes around for messy, painful stuff to process that you can't possibly share with all the Internets. Then do her homework assignments (with puffy eyes and snotty nose) about things like "What do I want, desire, need?" (oh so "I'm okay; You're okay" seventies, I know) and "How can I forgive myself for not being perfect during my first 25 years as an adult?" Yeah, that'll do it. Surefire writing block creator.
But if that isn't enough for you, you can take the next two blog killer steps.
2. Addict thyself to Twitter. It's like blogging but there's this wonderful character counter that yells at you to hurry up and finish before it CUTS YOU OFF. I get it all said in a few stream of consciousness words instead of blathering paragraphs. Right? I mean nice break for you, doncha think? (P.S. Follow me! Or let me follow you...)
3. Join a Fantasy Football league. It's that time, mes freres. So that means researching, radio, distraction...
I will be back to the blog (you know, once I include it on the therapist list of things I "want, need, desire, crave, have to have.") But for now, Twitter and FB are where you can find me more reliably. Or email me!

That twitter comment was just funny :)
Don't know what it is about twitter that is helpful.. maybe it is just a simple 140 character slice of therapy?
I'm not going to therapy, but I identify with shuffling through the first 25-30 years of adulthood, wondering how to forgive myself and move on. And about not being able to share. Miss you.
