Thinking about blogging does not a blogger make...

While there are some pursuits where thinking about something is nearly the same as actually doing it (like, philosophy, for instance, and . . . erm, okay, I can't think of anything else that really applies here), blogging is not one of those things, unfortunately for me.

As you can see from my blog, there's been very little DOING lately even though there has been a great deal of THINKING going on. Really, I swear! I think about blogging all the time as I'm driving down the road...

What's been taking my time lately? Well, for a while I could use the Olympics as an excuse. We had just gotten a DVR (think "Tivo" but with a different name, through Comcast) and we were recording every ounce of Olympic programming. Our DVR was constantly at 98% full. We were watching four hours of Olympics a night for a while there, and that was fast-forwarding through all the commercials and the boring parts of the events themselves ("Nope, no falls yet! 30 laps of speed skating to go. Keep fast-forwarding!"

Now, I'm currently addicted to Ape Escape 3 for PS2. It's my perfect kind of video game -- cute monkeys, not too hard, not many jumps to make over an abyss, etc. I'm at 51% right now, and will keep renting it with my free blockbuster coupons until I'm nearly done . . . or completely sick of it. In Ape Escape 2, I got to a part that I could not get past, and I gave it up around 75%. We'll see how far I get on this one.

But, just so all of you know, I am thinking about blogging and hope to one day soon be more than just a thinker again.

Blogging about blogging? You're better than that Lisa. Give me something I can add to my daily vocabulary like "scoochy scoochers".
