This post will probably not mention puppies at all, so… we’ll leave it
at that.
What today’s post is going to be about is my ability to be a douche bag
(pardon the language). I’ve had a semi-crappy semi-not-crappy semi-cranky day.
It’s been weird. I really don’t know what to say abou tit.
I had to work today, that much I can tell you, and working interfered
with me walking earlier in the day. I did do my walk at Walmart when I got out
of work, but I think that set me off kilter to start with. It’s insane, but in
those two days I got used to doing my walk when I woke up, took Erik to work,
and what not, then going on with the rest of my day. And, just having to work
today threw me off. I really gotta get my shit straight.
So, the walk was late, The Goal That Shall Not Be Named was later, and
once again, I’m sitting here at 10:30 pm trying to get a blog post written. I’m
still not sure what the post’s topic ought to be.
I could actually write about puppies… now that I’m done whining about
how life didn’t work out the way I wanted it too. And, the real good answer to
that, the one I need to hear is boo hoo, get used to it. If you want to make
something of yourself in life, or try to change something about your life,
sitting around and complaining about it isn’t going to get anything done.
My wife and I had a long talk about that, and I came to the same
conclusion I’ve always come too. I need to change, I need to put forward the
effort required to turn my life around. And, I need to follow through with it.
Making plans have always been easy for me, it’s the follow through that kills
me.
And, still, there isn’t any actual mention of puppies.
I liked the result I got when I started posting my walk stats and what
not on Facebook. I’ve been a little dismayed that those are becoming fewer and
fewer, but I’m the only person who can change that. What I’m trying to get at
though, is being held publicly accountable for my actions. I liked that. And, I
liked the overwhelmingly positive response I got from it right there in the
beginning.
There might be a correlation between that tapering off and the number
of days I go between posting stats. Maybe. Or maybe Facebook is a bitch. Either
way…
Puppies are awesome!
What I’m going to try to do is shoulder a little bit heavier of a load
than I have been. Mel’s had to carry too much of the weight for far too long. I
need to get serious.
I’ve been looking at doing freelance writing work, and looking at
revenue sharing websites (you’ve noticed the ads I believe) and I need to get
serious if I’m going to turn this into a form of income.
First, I need to learn SEO (Search Engine Optimization is what that
stands for… I believe) and I need to learn some tricks about getting more
traffic to my pages. I’ll google how to do that tomorrow, I’m about to doze off
right now. And, there’s a lot more I need to look into learning, but we’ll
start with SEO and traffic tips first.
G’nite kids.
