The ironic post that wasn’t really ironic but was more just dumb.
Sitting on my couch right now rather vegged. It’s 11:10pm on Monday night and I’m blinking as I notice the time because, uh? I usually post the next day’s post at midnight, and well, that’s less than an hour from now, and as you are reading this you realize that I have not written more than 2 sentences of a post and it’s about nothing but my current predicament. Which is really a rather lame way to start a post. I meant, which is really an AWESOME way to start a post. (I am so lazy that is the extent to which I’m going to go to convince you. Not convinced? Me either.)
What are you supposed to do when you’re such a raging lazy douche that you know you need to write your post, and it needs to be done immediately, but you’re still all, “waahhh, I’m too lazy to do this…” ?
Well, if you’re also an attention seeking whinebag, you Tweet your lamentations.
And then people respond.
You laugh. Then you go, uh, but really… what am I going to write about tonight?
And then you write about how you didn’t have anything to write about and it was almost midnight when you usually post and you didn’t really feel like writing about something so you Tweeted about it and then you got responses and then you laughed and then you wondered what you were going to write about.
Yeah. I totally went there.
And the most awesome thing is that when you’re done typing up your pathetic excuse for a post, and you wonder, “What photo could I possibly use on this post?” You decide that the best photo of all for this post would be a photo of the post.
So there.

Just take a day off here and there. We won’t mind. What’s this posting at midnight thing anyway? What’s wrong with posting at a sensible hour? Like 10am or 3pm. Midnight is for sleeping.

I love you. xxx

LOL. I’m behind right now, too. Both for work and my personal blog. Yep, it’s 9:30am and I’m commenting here instead. LOVE procrastination. I might go do some laundry;)

Wow. This is the Seinfeld of blogging posts…without the funny. (I tease – I always think you are a hoot but the comment was funnier if I said it wasn’t funny and really it is all about me.)

Just the thought of posting something every night at midnight makes me exhausted.

At least it just happened to you once… I’m going through a similar phase. I have some ideas, but never find the time to put them into virtual paper. I’m also tired because of the long work hours, so it’s getting harder to keep up with my blog.
The first thing to suffer from this are my visits to fellow bloggers, and the consequence of that is that I’m getting -on average- about 60% of the daily visits I had until February. Time for me to take a break? Who knows…
I guess that’s my way to say I understand how you felt, while making it all about me in the process. I’m a middle kid, so I crave extra attention.

Well, *I* laughed. I chuckled at your most awesome use of Tweets. Or recycle of tweets? Twats? Twohts?
They can’t ALL be winners.

It happens, my posts are getting lamer and lamer these days. This one is pretty lametastic though, I love it because you took the photo of the post and even shared the tweets… LOL
Now what the eff am I going to post about now that you’ve stolen my topic? Eh, maybe I’ll just nap and skip posting.

I agree with river. When I’m snugly sleeping in my warm bed at midnight, you are awake typing madly at on your keyboard, formulating sentences to wow the masses.
It sounds so exhausting. But then again, maybe I’m just not that interesting, so my well would run dry rather quickly.
But you Lotus, are always charming and funny, even when you’re blogging about not having a blog to blog yet. You could’ve posted “peepee poopoo peepee poopoo,” and we’d be pleased. Just don’t show up to a daycare chanting the aforementioned phrase. Apparently, it’s not acceptable, since I definitely got a note from Neilen’s teacher for it. Who knew that parents get notes for bad behavior, too?
