Not bad.

I got four paragraphs into writing something before I realized that it would serve nobody but myself to post. Nobody would derive any benefit from it, and I'd feel like a whiny sap for posting it. So I deleted it.

I do that a lot. That's why you don't hear much from me.

If it would serve you to post it, why not? Whiny sap notwithstanding.

Because I'm not even sure it serves me. I'm so far gone that even I don't care what I think.

I thought that's what blogs are for?

That's what a lot of people use them for, to vent their frustrations and call for help, not so much to get help as much as to hear themselves calling for help. I've even done that myself.

But then I look at sites like this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this and this, and I feel like an utter and complete hack. Sure, that's most of my blog bookmarks, of successful people in their own fields, and of course I'll look bad compared to them, but that doesn't stop me from feeling like a whiner when I go off on some sort of rant. Which I've done many times already and now feel ashamed of.

I mean, yeah, obviously I have good taste in blogs, but that's about all that I can claim.

I hate feeling like I'm fishing for sympathy. That's why I stopped going to you-know-where.

Ah, I wondered about that.
