You know you have a serious blogging problem if you find yourself away for the weekend in a great house in the Belgian Ardennes with lots of lovely friends and instead of being downstairs playing party games you are locked in the bathroom upstairs checking your comments and blogging on your phone. Hypothetically, of course.
You will know you have an even bigger problem if you lose the entire post and then you end up trying to recreate it verbatim in your darkened bedroom while trying not to wake the baby.
Have an excellent weekend, my darling people. And remember that even if you have free wifi you are not obliged to use it. You may elect to do something else. Like play party games. Hypothetically. Of course.

You may also have a problem if you blog from the toilet, when supposedly looking after your child and hiding in the pub toilets. Hypothetically.
ReplyDelete(I don't hide in the toilets when looking after my child. They're separate occasions. Just so you know).
ReplyDeleteI shall begin researching rehab facilities for bloggers immediately!
ReplyDeleteput the phone down, and step away from the phone (suggest wiping first or you'll leave a tell tail trail!). Go play games, go on, shoo, shoo.
ReplyDeleteYou can blog again tomorrow...promise. (ps I tend to tweet from the loo rather than blog. I blog under the covers!)
@Not such a yummy mummy - Damn and I thought it was standard practice to hide in the toilets when looking after a child. Another dream smashed.
ReplyDelete@Kate - Thank you!
@Kelloggsville - I stopped feeling bad about the blogging after a whole night spent looking after sick kiddies. Ah well.
You need help. Hand the babies and the mobile over to your man and go have a girls night out. Soon you'll get used to having a life. It's additive too.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend and get away from the computer/phone!
ReplyDeleteI'd send a comment but I'm sure you're downstairs playing party games with your lovely friends, so I won't, because you'll never get to read it.
ReplyDeleteArdennes says pate to me. Were they playing pate games, or party games?
ReplyDeleteIf the internet didn't blow up every now and then I'd never get anything done.
ReplyDelete@nmaha - I left the mobile in the house for the rest of the weekend. Annoyed people when they wanted to phone me but at least I stopped checking my email.
ReplyDelete@Tanya - Thank you. I did.
@tinman18 - I was.
@Iota - :-) There was pate, but it was not involved in the games.
@Murr Brewster - Welcome! And ehm yes I know that feeling.
I'd rather be blogging than at a party almost any day of the week.
ReplyDeleteBut I'm pathologically antisocial :)
xo
Blogging over party wins 9 times out of ten. Either that speaks for my lack of social skills or the crapness of my company.
ReplyDeleteIt is so true! I find myself sneaking the computer on vacations and hiding in the bathroom to use it:)
ReplyDeleteI see absolutely no problem with this. Well, except for the losing the whole post part.
ReplyDeleteoh so true.
ReplyDeleteTrue. But the downfall of taking a break from it all is that you might enjoy real life a bit too much and would be loath to give it up.
