so lazy

I was explaining to a friend a few weeks back how hard it was to keep a blog updated, always writing new entries.  He understood because he was blogging himself.  It was a great blog with interesting entries but it inevitably took too much time.  For some reason, it takes a lot to write a quick entry - for some people not so much, but I have a few theories.

My challenge is that, I want to write something fresh off my mind.  But by the time I get here, I've already told the story - either once to the wife, or to other friends.  So when I go to blog, I am just not in the mood to do it anymore and all the fun details are already lost.  Vice versa, if I quickly blog it here, I have no desire to rehash the story, thus people just hear/read about it through the blog - subsequently saying to me, "You didn't tell me that!  I had to read it on your blog!"  Aye, there's the dilemma.

Does that mean that lonely people are inherently better bloggers?  They have no one else to share their stories with so they have to put it on a blog?  I guess it can become more of a diary/journal thing after awhile.  Perhaps i'm just looking for an excuse as to why I'm so lazy in blogging and keeping this site up to date.  I did fix the comments section...
