A real Smithers blog post
Thursday, July 26th, 2007Smithers is always blogging about his day. This is what his day’s really like:
7:45 a.m. - Wake up. Can’t think of anything to blog about. Should I mention Mrs. Smithers’ snoring again?
8:15 a.m. - Second bowl of cereal, still nothing to blog about. Read a couple of cycling news sites, then blogs like Skimpy or Snookie looking for ideas. Change a diaper, inspect for bloggable content.
9:00 a.m. - Is it too early for pumpkin loaf? Still no blog idea. Read work email, maybe something I can lift from there. Read a couple more blogs, post a one-liner. Whew, monkey off my back for awhile.
9:30 a.m. - On my way to Starbucks, should I mobile-post about that jerk who cut me off on my 1/2 mile drive to get pumpkin loaf? Remember to weigh-in at home.
10 a.m. - No pumpkin loaf, had to eat a muffin instead. Mobile-posted the tabletop carnage. Can I get a ride in today? Wonder what people at the office are doing right now…should I blog about that?
11 a.m. - Email from ScottERob. Why does he always ask me these questions? Try to be nice in reply…Whoa, look at the inbox, I’ve got a lot of work to do, I need to get on it.
12 noon - Billy D wants to ride at 2pm. Does he work? No way, I’m too busy. Let’s see, 2 or 3 hot dogs for lunch?
1 p.m. - This guy at Nashbar won’t mind if I blog while we talk on the phone. How many? For how much? Got a sweet post half-written but now I have to document this order. Should I feel guilty reading wonkette? Reminder to self: read Ped forwarded article about life-hacking.
3 p.m. - Post entry about music I listened to in high school while skiing with snoring Mrs Smithers before Toddler Smithers made me so happy about getting out of Iraq and winning Masters Track.
5 p.m. - What’s for dinner, Toddler Smithers? How can I make people behave on the Urthel ride?
7 p.m. - Big trouble brewing on the MCF board, I better weigh in…
7:30 p.m. - Nice night for a walk - what part of this can I mobile-post about?
9 p.m. - Dessert! and bed.
