So why do I do it? I always say that I don't blog anymore because I don't have anything to say (which is true more often than not), but sometimes I actually do have ideas that I wish to share. However, any kind of writing requires thought, and when it comes to blogging especially, a touch of finesse, humor, and all those whistles and bells that make reading a blog actually worth reading. This is where the problem lies. After a long day at the office, my brain wants to shut down for the night, not continue to work! Thus it's so much easier to just watch TV or play games online than to sit down and write.
If i could just half ass all of my blog posts I'd probably be writing non-stop. But I can't half ass any post because I'm still secretly hoping that people will be reading my blog, and thus I must maintain a high level of standards for each post, lest my scarce population of readers think that I'm so kind of babbling idiot.
It's a weird and demented cycle. I guess the only winning move is not to play.

I absolutely know what you mean about your possible (almost certain!) reasoning behind blogging. Because I also fear the same thing. But I have found, through my extremely short time blogging, that it's great to have a way to vent. When you feel like no one else is listening. You're writing to yourself. To look back and see your growth and document past ... blunders, if you will. So that when the times come that you feel down about where you are in LIFE, you can look back and see-
You have actually traveled such a long, long way.
