Slogging

January 27, 2006 By Will Richardson

So I’m back into slogging rather than blogging mode. This seems like a pretty rhythmic thing anymore. About every few weeks I seem to hit a wall where I just find it impossible to keep up with what other people are writing and doing and I get envious as heck because I want to be writing and doing that stuff too. Take for instance this very cool Flickr presentation that Alan and Brain put together. I mean, my goodness…I’m in awe. Where do they find the time to do that and keep their day jobs? My brain has this very whiny voice screaming “I waaannnnnaaaa doooo that! Waaaah!” And I know I shouldn’t complain because instead I get to blogvangelize in Florida and Tablet PC-elize in Atlantic City today and work with Jeff Jarvis training some professors at CUNY tomorrow and all the while have a pretty swell time. But I just want to do it all.

Oy.

So, I’m slogging, and probably will be for awhile. But the good news is the reinvention side of my brain is clearing. Some changes are afoot. For now, I just have to deal with the fact that I can’t know everything and do everything. For now…

    Will,

    I completely know what you’re feeling — I’m feeling it, too. Happens from time to time, oddly enough — you’d think we could get past it and move on — but alas, too much good stuff.
    Here’s hoping your slogging session is brief.
