Now introducing BA (Bloggers Anonymous)

For DramaMama:

BA a support group for those of us guilty of one or more of the following:

  1. Those of us blogging our own lives, feelings, thoughts or minds despite others not reading and telling us it is really boring
  2. Those of us addicted to others blogs in such a way that life stops being enjoyable if the Starbucks waiter takes longer to take our order than we deem is necessary because someone has updated their blog
  3. Those of us to incessantly check other blogs through out the day just hoping beyond hope that in the last 7 ½ minutes or so someone has updated their blog
  4. Those of us who learn about celebrity gossip, new trends in fashion, the latest FDA drug approved or who is running for president not from the headlines on the news sites but from someone’s blog who has an opinion about one or all of the above….and can link them all together in a train of thought we understand
  5. Those of us who have given up the hope of a clean home, no laundry, a firm buttocks or other life goal to blog about why we are unable to have all of these things
  6. Those of use who have missed one or more of the following because we were busy blogging:
    a. Birthday of a child/spouse/both
    b. Doctor appointment
    c. Hair appointment
    d. Taking something out of the oven that is now burnt
    e. Your child’s recital/other special event
    f. __________________ (fill in the blank)

For those of you out there with this addiction, remember is it a disease and should be treated as such. Treatment for this disease is not costly, but it is time consuming and the withdrawal symptoms could include but not be limited to:

  1. Screaming your opinions at the TV screen and wondering why they are not talking back
  2. Moving your fingers in such a way that your spouse wonders what you are doing (in your mind you are sitting at your computer typing)
  3. Making frequent trips to the mailbox hoping that new mail has arrived and not remember that the postman comes once a day and not at all on Sunday
  4. _________ (fill in the blank)

There is hope. Starting today I am going to host a BA meeting every Friday. You can come with me to your local Starbucks….cost of admission is free, but make sure you bring you laptop equipped with a WI-FI connection so we can all blog happily….out of the sight of our spouses.

Happy Blogging!
