I Am Lame (or, Why I Haven't Been Blogging)

So, there's this lady. Her name is Allie Brosh. She has a blog called Hyperbole and a Half, and her blog is awesome. And funny. And filled with bizarre things that only happen to people who live the kind of lives that Allie and I live. In short, Allie is my hero.

And, is more interesting than me. And every time I go to write a post I realize that something similar to my experience has happened to Allie, and her experience was funnier. I have a funny story about being in the cross country team in high school, but hers was far more off the wall. I have a funny story about a time I had to go to the ER, she wound up with a hilarious re-imagining of the 1-10 pain chart.

Then I tell myself that I also have many funny things happen to me that aren't similar to things that Allie has written about, often on a daily basis. The problem is, working in the medical field means telling the internet about them could cause a HIPPA violation, and that would be sad.

So then I sit here staring at the screen, wanting to write a blog post, and every amusing thing that has ever happened to me falls out of my head and I realize that if I start typing all I will be able to write about is my cat and then I would become that crazy lady who blogs about her cat all day and no one would want to read my blog.

So, now I have explained my absence, and I will be posting more soon, I promise.
