If I Don't Blog Will the Internet Crash???

Sometimes my own ego, and the extent to how big it is, amazes even me!!!



I wasn't going to blog today except to post saying that I wasn't going to blog today which is the same as posting a blog!!

I don't know why I have a compulsion to blog EVERY DAY and have since I started blogging over 2 and a half years ago. Do I feel the Internet will collapse if I don't?

When I was working for 48 years I was proud of my record of having never missed a day by calling in sick. I think, in the back of my head, I figured whatever place I was working would go out of business!!! I like to think that if I called in sick it would put a burden on my co-workers though I know when I was a server I was glad people called in sick because that meant I would get more tables and, consequently, I would make more money!

Now ego or not I KNOW a place wouldn't go out of business if I didn't show and the Internet wouldn't collapse if I didn't post a blog every day BUT, for the owners of the businesses and the owners of the blog sites (and you), I don't want to take that chance--so it's not ego just my concern for others!!! (Or could it be that no one would notice?!?!? LOL)

Oh, in case you didn't notice I do have a healthy ego!!

Hmmmmm, let me see if I can work on a possible solution to that situation, something that might help along the lines of all that catching up. Lemme think on it.

I don't know if the computer will crash, but I would probably crash! I'm forever trying to keep up with your posts...if you ever stopped and I got really caught up, I'd probably crash and crumble from the lack of the challenge! Plus, heck, I'd be missing out on a variety of good stuff I'm so used to every day and wondering what's going on with you that you're not sharing. So, don't worry about your ego because my ego would feel neglected and I'd be suspicious of why.

We already knew about your ego for 2.5 years

I can usually count on you and Jerri to post every day, and your record is stellar. Maybe the internet will crash if you don't post? Why take that risk? Keep writing!

I would miss talking to you. Sometimes I think this is better than the phone. Probably not as good as a nice lunch, a diet coke and a long chat!

We would definitely miss you if you skipped a day.

I know that it won't crash if I do not blog.
