Nosebleed blog, one entry only:

Boy ate my blog last year. Too much of my writing effort goes into L.D.R. emails & such these days, I have no more spare writing thoughts. (haha, I still inflect the scraps on you guys, though.) I always used to grumble in high school + college that women who say that they had no creative energy left after meeting a S.O. weren't good feminists, so it serves me right. I think for *some* people quite a bit of painting/photography/writing comes out of feeling like you're missing something, and finding that sadly shuts off a lot of the creative drive you might have had. Like if I look at my photography work in the last year, I think probably 98% of it is crap, I just don't have the need anymore to get up at 5 AM & go look really nice light.

I'd like for there to be more than the few entries on this blog, To My Grandson:

Sadly, it appears The Dullest Blog in the World is now kaput. Not surprising, really, if you read some of the entries. I really liked it, though. (I think you actually pointed it out to me, Colin.)

Thatnks for reminding me hjopw I wasted your time, Prude. There is a tremendous amount of pathos in 'to my grandson', I think. Not just that it was begun, but that it was abandoned almost immediately.

You didn't waste my time, Colin! The time I spent with The World's Dullest Blog was quite enjoyable indeed.

i haven't posted to my blog in a while, but it's mostly because I'm trying to figure out how to export it so I can start using iblog instead of RadioUserland.

what if they gave a BLOG and no one came?

Why did they bother? Abandonned threads.

Out of 10,000,000 blogs on the net, almost all are dead.

my blog ended because i left russia:

Ambrose in Russia

simple, innit? i cant work out why geocities hasnt terminated it with extreme predjudice, but i like it, as a sort of artefact.

One of my blogs has been abandoned because it was mostly about being out and about in Brighton and I don't have the time or money to be out or about any more.

My blog is on hiatus. I will go back to it soon.
