Drumming My Fingers, Finding a Topic

When I procrastinate from writing, cleaning, or anything else that isn't reading/watching TV, I look at other authors' blogs--a lot--both adult and young adult. Tess Gerritsen's, Jennifer Weiner's, Meg Cabot's, Sarah Dessen's, Robyn Schneider's. Some of them post sporadically (Gerritsen, Weiner, Schneider), others what seems every day (Cabot, Dessen). I want to be a Cabot-Dessen, but I end up being a Gerritsen-Weiner-Schneider. Life gets too busy or else I wonder, what is there to talk about that wouldn't act like the blog equivalent of a sleeping pill?

One thing to talk about is humidity. And how much I hate it. I've been living in the East for close to a year now after 30 years in Arizona and, boy, I sure do miss a dry heat. And no bugs.

Snoring yet?

I'll come up with better stuff. I may even pilfer a few topics from Gerritsen, Weiner, Cabot, Dessen, or Schneider a la
Kaavya Viswanathan. :o)
