Have you ever not read blogs for a few days? I have been reading and commenting on some, but I feel as though I have abandoned you. Not that you are lost without me; but everything in life is “real time” or “near real time” that it is easy to be forgotten.
Thanks to all of you who continue to post comments on my blog even though I am not really “around”. I feel like I am “jonesing” for all of your blogs, and I feel like I have fallen off the face of the earth. And in just a few days. I think that qualifies me as an addict.
I spent several hours a day reading and responding to blog posts, and without that, I feel really weird. Isn’t that funny? It’s like going on vacation; I think to myself, “Oh my god, when I get back, will anyone remember who I am?” Which, of course, is total bullshit.
So, out of my feelings of guilt, I am catching up on blogs this morning.
I let Robin down last night, because my medicine made me crash. I felt really badly about that. She was going to interview me. I hope she isn’t mad at me.
Anyway, I HAD decided not to post on weekends, but my addict side came out and I felt the need to post. God, what WILL I do if I ever actually do go somewhere on vacation? Geez, isn’t that really sad?
And thanks to everyone who is helping me out next week by being a guest blogger on my site. You guys are awesome!

I’m so glad you posted. I was in need of an excuse to stop cleaning and sit for a while. Now, I need more blogs…

Hi.
We got wet this morning, but the bad stuff missed us.
Are you okay?
Keep posting on weekends. I like to read something when I wake up.

I’m not upset at all, shit happens and I certainly understand falling asleep like that. We’ll do it tonight, do not feel bad.

You know, up until yesterday it always confused me when you apologized to us for not posting or commenting on blogs.
And then that’s what I did yesterday. And I kept thinking about you saying that. And I understood.
No apologies to us are necessary. You take care of you. We stay here.

My addiction is fed quite nicely by my blackberry - newsgator Go! and twitterberry and browser and email. Helps me fill in the ‘dead time’ when not at my computer and makes catching up on blogs a nice fun thing instead of a potential chore.

I am addicted too Even though I have been sick for a few days, I have been reading through my reader and just waiting til I could comment again.
The thing is, I don’t ever really get upset when people don’t comment for a little while at a time…it’s the ones that completely dissppear that kill me.

Mel: you are too cute. I keep myself from cleaning by putting blogs before all else too.
slut: Thank you… You make me feel good. You guys are so nice. I’m doing well, except the damned risperdal (which is a temporary solution until things settle down) makes me feel like I lost 40 IQ points during the day. I can’t remember what things are called. I feel like a total ‘tard.
Poppy: Thanks!
Wayne: I need to get newsgator go. My f’ing BB is dying all the time now.
Hilly: I am so with you. I like our little blogging circle.

I’ve done this as well and then feel awful for it. I’m trying to make my rounds this morning before Olivia wakes up and the festivities begin
Come on man. You know you want to say something!
