Apparently I'm lame

Props to those of you who read--and especially, commented--on what I have recently been informed is a "pretty lame shoe post". This from my little brother who didn't even deign to read it, citing as his reason, "I wasn't interested in reading about girlie shoes." Well, SO-RRY!

Sadly, my writing inspiration has left me for parts unknown, with no sign of returning. I was attempting to keep up anyway, but maybe I'd better lay off the writing for now. As proof that female consumerism can be a catchy topic when in the right hands, you should check out my friend Amy's post on finding a swimsuit. So hilarious.

Yesterday I had a moment (felt like a burning eternity) of sciatic nerve pain. My girls (I) made a fort and I had crawled into its depths to read them stories. But lying on my back on the floor, I have now learned, is a recipe for disaster. I couldn't get out! Every which way I rolled or slithered, the nerve pain just shot through me. I finally managed it, and wept in relief, but have been hobbling about ever since. I'm only 22 weeks. And a half. I always forget how much I don't like being pregnant--but I have now remembered.

Happy Tuesday from me, the inspirationless poster.

:o( Sorry to hear it, but how good of you to go crawling in (and building) forts.

Um, whatever about the writing. You are the best blog writer I know. I aspire to make my posts as witty, humorous, enjoyable, and succinct as yours. In fact, I pondered the wording on my swimsuit post for several days thinking "gotta make it as good as Polliwog's." Ouch on the sciatica! I hear you. That pain is bad, and lingers longer than you'd like. Keep posting, because you have a devoted audience. And we all feel uninspired some of the time. My post today is a perfect example.

Hmm, I think you sould write about whatever you want. I am so sorry that you are not feeling well. I agree with the other writer you have a great following and it seems you are a hit so it doen't really matter what you write about, but you are always very good. I have been looking at my own posts and have been thinking about ways I want to change what and who I write about. I think I will revamp or tweek soon! Thanks for always enspiring me!

Don't listen to him. Your brothers are boring... take it from an insider.
