Apparently Hemingway said to Fitzgerald, "Letter-writing is such a swell way to avoid working, and yet still feel you've done something". Maybe blogging is like that too. I've not had much success finding blogs that are actually interesting; too many of them seem to be about knitting and recipes. Am I doing this wrong? I like the list ones, www.todolistblog.com and Sasha Cagan, and also Post Secret www.postsecret.blogspot.com . Watch for lists as the New year approaches!
Words to Use More in 2008
1. Great Scott! (as Dr Emmett Brown in Back to the Future)
2. Whiffling (to mean "trifling" or the modern "piddling" as in Charles Lamb)
3. I'm not available (obvious)
4. Snazzy (not going to be easy, with the local uniform of Thinsulate hats and fleeces)
5. No! (see 3)
More lists to come no doubt.
