Lately, I have been feeling slightly guilty desperate perturbed because I have nothing to blog about. At first, I was going to tell you this was not my fault - the internet is just not funny anymore. But we all know that's not true. Everyone knows there are still terabytes of LOLdoggery and Star Wars humor out there, just waiting for me.
The real problem is, my head is chock full of the un-funny, 24 hours a day. I am writing two reports - one for work, and another one in the evenings, for school. One report will keep me in good stead at Dream Job; the other will enable me to (finally) graduate. If you'd like to read a blog post about a fiscal analysis of volunteer firefighting, or the regulation of the CPA profession, by all means let me know. But after everything you've withstood here over the years, such a post might finally send you over the edge.
So, I've decided to temporarily place this blog on hiatus until the reports are completed, or at least in very good shape. I'll try and continue the weekly roundup on Fridays. I'll still be on Twitter. And in a month or two I'll send you an email to say hello again.
Wow, just typing this ... I feel so relieved!
You'll be missed--but I totally support you! I'll catch you on Twitter. Sometimes you need a break!

I think you should serialize your report on a fiscal analysis of volunteer firefighting. Kind of like a cliffhanger at the end of each post.

Mom, you might be editing the firefighter paper in a month's time. Then you'll understand why it must not be unleashed upon the innocent.

It's me isn't it? I knew it would end this way: some mammal sticking out its tongue at me as if to say "yeah, YOU, Mr. 'I-Can't-Keep-My-Posts-On-Topic' it's ALL YOUR FAULT PAM IS ABANDONING US. You, with your 'look at me I'm so surrealist with my desperate whackiness and viola-phobia' well I HOPE YOU"RE HAPPY!"
I should NEVER have posted about Ezy-Bake Ovens. Thus Eris and Bob Dobbs reward the faitthless!

I understand, I'm having hard times finding funny online these days myself. And every time someone asks how my life is doing I am all "um, dull."

You caught me with morning tongue! But really, my beancounter, I will miss your blog. It will be here when you are ready!

I'll be waiting! Don't get TOO accustomed to this hiatus thing.

Gosh, you guys. Thanks. I should include you in my thesis acknowledgements page.

Valerie was getting uppity: she was pressuring Eddie to do a cover of the "One Day at a Timw" theme song and, equally bad, she was telling David Lee how many scarves he should wear per show.
It had to be done. I accept full responsibility!!
