<Written two weeks prior to registering for this blog.>
So I sat down and told myself I would start up a blog today. I was determined to quit daydreaming about all the things I want to do and actually begin something. A close friend recommended Blogspot, another WordPress. I’ve now successfully wasted the last hour and half flipping back and forth between the two. I can’t honestly convince myself that this is a realistic dilemma. I can’t justify this flagrant waste of precious time. No, this is just good ol’ procrastination.
Can you believe that I was about to take out a piece of paper to compose a list of pros and cons comparing the two when I realized how ridiculously stupid I was being? But for that brief moment I seriously thought I had caught myself, exposed my habitual delaying tactics and would finally overcome it. Blogspot or WordPress- who cares? I decided I would register with whatever one was still on my screen.
WordPress it was. I was almost giddy with the feeling of transcendence. Such a silly little thing a blog is- but oh how good it feels to be moving towards a goal. I clicked the big inviting link: Click Here To Get Your WordPress Blog. How simple and wonderful!
But then- Username.
Ack- They want me to name my blog now?!?! I need more time. No, not just because I’m procrastinating but because we ALL know everyone judges a blog by its cover, and nothing is as important a feature as the all encompasing TITLE.
Once again my skiddish nature perseveres. A title..I need time to come up with an appropriate title.
Screw it. I’m not starting the blog today.
