My malfunction when I try to do something like this on a regular basis…for me, it’s blog posts…is that every time I make the resolution to do something on a regular basis, something comes up and I can’t manage to do it.

For example, I created a new blog at the beginning of the year dedicated to writing about filmed entertainment – movies and television. I didn’t say I was going to post every day, but I committed to three to four new posts every week. So far, so good.

And then someone I knew through through SCA was killed in a helicopter crash, which hit me very hard and hit some of my friends, who had known him better and longer than I had, even harder. And then, I got the head cold from hell and did pracitically nothing for a week aside from work. So I haven’t posted there, or in my general blog, for at least a couple of weeks.

I know that those things aren’t really good excuses. Still, I just can’t seem to find the motivation to keep those things up on a regular basis these days, and I don’t quite know what to do about it. I think I use up all my self-discipline getting my paid work done every day.
