lazy days of summer
Please excuse my lack of posts. These last few days of summer have been busy ones. I'm trying to spend as much time as possible with my kids before they head back to school since I didn't have much vacation time this year.
I've got a few ideas for posts half-written up and half-baked (like most of my notions) but I'll confess I've spent more time writing up replies on the assorted blogs which I frequent than I have on my own.
Since I'm still relatively new to blogging, I keep discovering things about bloggers... what makes them tick, what motivates them, the means of communicating effectively instead of evoking emotional responses. Some folks don't care and prefer to stir up a good yelling match. Others are more prim and proper. I always try to be polite and articulate... I rarely swear although I'll dip into the rhetoric jar occasionally. It's hard to be funny in the written word since every word is subject to interpretation.
I'll polish off one of my posts in the next couple days... I hope!!

I am looking forward to more of your posts, Mac. I always enjoy reading your comments on my blog and others. You are very reasonable and fair in your arguments.
I appreciate that you rarely "dip into the rhetoric jar', although we are all human, right? Good grief, I even used the word "SOW", myself! Shocking.
so am I, can't wait. I like thinkers that swear lol
by the way which beast in N.S. did you grow up in? Mine was Rainbowhaven
These last few days, my wife has been running me ragged. I've only had about an hour a day at my computer, most of which I've spent reading not writing. As a teaser, one of my subjects which I've got started is tentatively titled "Professional Licence For Journalists"
Sara, my mother is from Pictou, NS but we were raised in PEI. Our local beach was Cedar Dunes.
I know the feeling I just quit the waitressing job, I was bushed! It is too much, but jeez that was the only paying job lol KD for us for a while heh
We spent our summers in PEI, it was the best I love the Maritimes. I've never made it to NFLD but I'd love to go.
