God I’m Soooo Tired
God I’m soooo tired. But it’s a good tired. I haven’t been in the blogosphere for, what is it now, 14 days? My programming / consulting business has done a complete 180. I’m back in business and I didn’t realize how much I missed it. That’s why I haven’t been blogging. I’ve been working regular hours and into the night when I’m not helping my wife with the kids. People have actually been wondering what the hell happened to me. I fell off the face of the Earth and am just now coming up for air.
I don’t know how long this is going to last, being a freelancer is so sporadic, but I’m riding this horse until it dies. So, I’m not leaving the blogosphere, I’ll just try and scrape up some time to post.
Another reason I’ll have to check in on my blog is that the spam is getting really incredibly outrageous. I swear, I must’ve had over 100 that still got through my filters! The topics are really annoying too.
I’m perfectly happy with the size of my member. No, I don’t want or need viagra, cialis, or levitra, at least not yet anyway. No, I’m not interested in meeting any new “friends” of the opposite sex in my area. No, I’m not interested in investing in gold, oil futures, alternative energy, or small cap stocks. I don’t want to go to casino sites, I’m not interested in timeshares or real estate…the list keeps getting bigger and bigger.
And the methods these guys think are soooo cool and slick, using vague supposed comments about my blog postings like,” I really enjoyed your post. You’ve made some really good points, I’ll be book marking you for the future.” And the link back address is something like “porno4u.com”.
The ones I find the most annoying use comments someone already posted from way back in my archives. I read everyone and I have a really good memory. I recognize them all.
Have you ever wondered what it would be like if positive websites spammed as much as the scummy ones did?
No, I guess that wouldn’t be good either but at least I might feel a little guilty about deleting them.
I have not started working again yet but I can only imagine how tired you are. I am beat and I only have to take care of the Triplets and the house:)
Have fun!

That is definitely one of the problems with working for yourself. You do have to take the busy periods, to make sure you keep afloat during the quiet ones. And when you add in kids to the mix, it can definitely be exhausting. I’m returned from holiday and desparately avoiding all the emails sat in my inbox. I should at least delete the junk, so it looks a little less daunting.
Good luck with your busy period.
Know what you mean about the spam, it drives me to distraction. Glad the business is working out.
