This is not a library.

Is it just me, or is all of blogland kinda... quiet? Is blogging dying or is this a slow time? I just don't remember it being so quiet here, and it's really quiet in my feed reader too. I'm slightly disturbed at everyone's quietness.

Agreed...it's been very quiet for awhile now. I'm hitting the point where I'm almost blogged out. I just don't feel the same way about it that I used to. But I keep the blog around because it's a woman's prerogative to change her mind and all that.

It seems to ebb and flow, I think, though I guess there's been more ebbing than flowing recently from the folks who've been in my inner circle the longest. I'd like to think it's temporary, but I suppose all good things come to an end, so I guess you never know. :-(

Friday always seems to be a little quiet. I think it's because people are either trying to get work done that they haven't finished yet, coming in late, leaving early, or taking long lunches.

Kinda like Monday in reverse.

H, ... yah. :-/

Stef, ... yah. :(

ACW, has it been Friday for about 2 months now?

I am posting away like a banshee. I am commenting like a robot. I think the bodily fluids you've been spitting up on the technology have shorted a circuit or two. wait, are there still such things as circuits? Well I don't know. Maybe you're just hanging out in dull places. Yeah that's it.

Poppy said...

RW, you and Pat are definitely the exception. Oh, and MIL! (Crying out loud, woman!)

Maybe I'm making an observation about myself without meaning to.

I agree with ACW. It's always quieter on a Friday...

It also may be time to clear out some old feeds and refresh with new ones.

Poppy said...

Jfu, you are such an old man with your CAPS. :p (PS - thanks for showing up. :p again.)


Dawg, I'm not talking about "Friday".

I haven't noticed a lull, and I'm still posting, commenting like normal. I do notice, however, that when I have more free time (which is rare), I check feeds more often and are "upset" that there aren't more newer items.

Maybe now that you're not super-on-the-go-travel, you're online more and therefore expecting more?

Maybe everyone is at the ER with a staph infection, or putting their keyboards/mice in the dishwasher to keep things sterile.

Just really busy. I still read you. ;-)

I admit it has been quiet, but I haven't had quiet in a long, long time... Plus I have been working on the Vino site....

Poppy said...

Wah, yah, you won't be quiet for one minute, will you? ;)

Mikey, your busy-ness has been noted since August. You have a free pass.

Maman, if the thought of wine didn't make me wanna barf I'd come visit there.

K, I am starting to think I *broke* the volume. I saw your post... did I comment?! ACK. Returning...

Sorry man. I know you live for my blog.

I have been out of town, and I am about to start the crazy job. Also, I have a client that I want to shoot, and I am not going to get my stuff done for them!!!

I am blogging this morning, so stay tuned. I know you greatly anticipate my blogs!

Work has been insane. Long hours. Little sleep. And the Red Sox are alive. Creative time on the PC is limited.

I think I need a grilled cheese sandwich.

I think it is just a busy time of year for a lot of people. School started (for those who are affected by that), work can get busy, and the holidays are rapidly approaching. I dunno- I have been busy as hell and that is the reason my blog has been quieter than usual but I'll try to step it up.
