I'm Jealous

That's right I said it. I am jealous as hell of all you bloggers that have actual interesting blog fodder to post about daily.

I mean really. Some of you have some really terrific, fun filled lives and can actually post something new daily in your blog.

There are times when things get crazy for me then there are times , like now, when things are pretty quiet. Those quiet times don't exactly make for good blog read.

I do have to report though that I have to go to Alabama next weekend, however. No it's not for pleasure or anything like that (Who the hell would go to Alabama for a fun time anyway? HAHAHA). My uncle (father's brother) is terminally ill and apparently not feeling up to par these days. My mother and I want to go see him so we are flying down next Friday. My brothers are going down this week. There is no way in hell I could make that 13-15 hour drive. UGH!

It's pretty sad that he is in the state that he's in. He's a really great guy. He flew all the way up to Baltimore in 1995 to give me away at my wedding.

Oh my goodness, Diva your blog has me laughing and/or thinking. I know when I come here I will have something to read, you and Opinated Diva have me shaking my head sometimes.

As for my blog, I have been lowkey. I am close shutting it down.

Oh, I'm sorry about your uncle. I think everyone who blogs goes through periods of "why, why, why". You just don't think of going away, missy!!

Sizzle said...

I'm sorry to hear about your Uncle. :(

Oh heavens. Some days I have to wrack my brain to think about what to write, and really, I often just think I'm boring. I'm kind of shocked you have the same issue with trying to come up with something to write!

I'm sorry about your uncle though - how sweet you are to travel to see him, and especially that he came to your uncle. He must be a fabulous person.

Vi said...

Chari said...

I hope you have a safe trip and my thoughts are with you and your family!

My blog sucks today.

Let's see, what's in Alabama? Isn't Space Camp in Alabama? You could make a side trip to Space Camp.
The fictional characters of Forrest Gump and his friend Bubba were from Alabama, right? You can go to Alabama and sample all the food you can make with shrimp.
Seems like there were a few casinos and such there, but maybe I have that confused with some other place.

That's all I can think of. It was one of those places on the way to Georgia and Florida. Maybe it will be nice. Maybe just going on a plane trip with your mom will be nice.

I find it really hard sometimes to find stuff to blog about. I revert back to my old days when I did more interesting and often times illegal things. I just write about the past when I can't think of anything else.

Awwwww - that was really sweet of you uncle to walk you down the aisle and very cool tha tyou are going to visit him.

Jeni said...

HAH! Interesting lives, huh? Give me a break! All I have to work with here are my grandkids or memories of things I did and half the time I can't think of any memories worth remembering to put in writing. Somedays, I only feel like reading, don't want to bother my pea brain about thinking about the work of composing stuff either. Point is, we all have days like that.
Sorry to hear about the reason you have to make the trip to Alabama but hope you and your Mom have a safe flight down and back and that the others in your family don't have any difficulties either. Don't need any other stuff clouding your life now, for sure!

KIKI said...

Chile...aint you ever heard of that saying "Silence is Golden". Hell, it actually bothers me when somebody ALWAYS has somehing to say. Sometimes we just need to sit & enjoy the quiet. Dont feel obligated to post about somehing everyday...we understand.

My prayers go ut to your uncle & the rest of your family. Have a safe trip.

Retro Girl said...

I have days like that...read everyone's blogs and feel like my drivel is...just drivel...lol.

Found you via Vixen...Gonna read your blog a bit more...looks great so far! :-)

Sorry about your uncle..Hope your visit goes well. I think visits like that with family are so important. You're an angel.

dmarks said...

I had my impressions of Alabama figured out for writing as I hit comment, but Laughing beat me to them. Huntsville space center and Forrest Gump.

Still, I've never been to any place near there, and it would be quite interesting to me.

I know you're not jealous of me when I blog about my sister's pregnancy & my extra monthly period! lol

Mizrepresent said...

We all go through slumps...just do you lady, hey and have a safe trip, and i wish your family the best.

That girl said...

We all have lulls in our blogs. It's normal. The key is that we don't all take our lulls at the exact same time ;-)


Sad news about the uncle. Sorry to hear that.

Lys said...

So sorry to hear about your uncle!

RE: The blog - I'm always crackin' up when I read yours - what do you mean you don't have blog fodder.

My problem is that part of my day to day blog fodder is the 9to5 and I sure as heck can't post that or I won't HAVE a 9to5. *LOL*

Sorry to hear about your uncle...it's nice that your going to see him....sometimes the nothingness that we think we're writing about in our blogs is better than dramatic stuff lol
