Blog-Free Weekends

I’m somewhat less inclined to trust bloggers who blog on the weekends. So, I’m glad to see that one of my favorites, Michelle Malkin, is taking the weekend off to go fishing.

My advice to Michelle? Do it every weekend. There are few things that happen over the weekend that can’t wait until Monday to write about.

My loyal readers (both of them) have figured out by now that I almost never blog on the weekends. As a technical writer (software and hardware manuals for mobile air defense systems), I spend 50-60 hours a week in front of my computer writing. I spend another 3-4 hours per-day reading blogs+writing my own blog.

Most weekends, I’m nowhere near a computer. Most weekends, like this weekend, I’m out playing in sanctioned professional disc golf tournaments around Texas (I’ll be in historic Gonzalez, TX tomorrow for the Texas 10 Charity Disc Golf Tournament).

So, Michelle, I hope you have a great blog-free weekend. And to all our other blogging peers: step away from the computers; go outside and do something. Go somewhere. Anywhere. Just leave the computer at home.

Robbie–Just stopped to check in…you might want to check how your homepage is listed in your comments–the “Homepage” link says “urabangrounds.com” and doesn’t go anywhere…

I often do a lot of blogging on the weekend, depending on whether my wife is having a good weekend or a bad one. On the good ones, I’d ratehr be with her, but on the bad ones, I would prefer that she get some rest so that maybe we have some good days in the week to come — so she gets some extra sleep, and I blog. Unfortunately, there are as many bad ones as good.

BTW — could you drop me an email? I’d like to pass on some info to you.
