When you’re spent
I admit, figuring out what was wrong with the blog shouldn’t have taken me that long to figure out. Logic would tell me1 that I should have checked the .htaccess file first. But for some reason, I was just certain that it had to be something more complicated.
I think it has a lot to do with this growing to-do list2 that seems to be overwhelming me more than helping me right now. This holiday season is mapping to be a very stressful one and I have no one to blame but myself. But I don’t blame myself. I’ve chose projects like making my own Halloween costume, planning a birthday dinner, making a lot of craft gifts for Christmas and going to Dublin for New Year’s because I’m trying to save money and because I want to be in his arms sooner rather than later3.
While I’m glad to have friends who will invite me over for dinner, or even just to chill at their place… I have so much to do that sometimes I prefer to just stay home. Of course when I’m home instead of doing all the things I need to do I sit and tweet, forum and blog surf instead.
I thought that I would have a more set routine by now, having been at my current job for a little over 3 months but I don’t. I suppose that’s partly due to the fact that my friends and I don’t have a set schedule for seeing each other either. I used to think that I was good at taking things as they come, but after leaving school I realised that I require a routine before I can take things as they come4.
I don’t have much point to this post, other than to ramble on and provide excuses as to why its taken me more than a week to completely fix the blog5. But also, I did want to just vent a little bit. My brain is a mishmash of thoughts and I needed somewhere to put these ones.
Are you tired? Or is it just me?

I totally know what you mean. Sometimes that to-do list gets overwhelming, and sometimes it is better to sit at home to try and get something accomplished. Sometimes you have to knock some small things off the list just to feel like you’re in control.
I’m happy the website is fixed. I missed you while you were down.

I very tired. I’ve been neglecting my site too and only been able to update maybe once or twice a week. Work has been too much for me!!! Sometimes I just want to quit!

I hope you changed the permission of that file; otherwise, it’d be overwritten by anyone.

Did anyone ever tell you, too many annotations make you look like you talk to yourself, way too much?
Just kidding! I missed reading your blog and was wondering what happened to it.

I [think] understand what you mean about taking things as they come. I often get that feeling where I just haven’t got enough done, or just feel like I haven’t got time. It’s so frustrating and pretty detrimental to getting things done. I think I know what you mean about the routine, since if you had a bit of routine you could go out at night knowing you had achieved something you needed to. Why is it so hard to do that?! Afraid I definitely can’t offer you any words of wisdom on this issue!
