So I notice the blogs I love to read are very in-the-moment. "The daily dailies" I call them, and I read them every morning with my coffee. I am glad the world is going round, and that these people are in it.
I love how much MomBrain loves her kid. How cheerfully, irreverently, and excellently Odious Woman is doing in her job, her marriage, and her gym. I want her for MY manager. I love how pragmatic IcewardBound is about Antartica, theatre, the military. I love IzzlePfaff's recoiling pessimism and clear heart, even though he often shocks me; with him protecting the rights of cancer patients and plying our stages, we're all in much better hands.
Me, though... I feel like I'm standing with a megaphone on the edge of my bathtub, shouting, "I've Had Another Important Thought."
Good lord.
(But I do. I have LOTS of Important Thoughts. I have them all the time.)

Oh, honey, if I'm coming across as cheerful, something's wrong with my tone! My attitude, lately she has been BAD.
On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that lends spice to my management style, so I'm going to go with it. A bad mood, if managed properly, can be a lot of fun.
Yeah, I think that's it -- you don't deny the bad moments, the sad days, or the crappy runs. They're laid right in there with the good ones. The whole texture feels real.
But underneath, your blog feels like Lake Washington as seen from 520 -- all whitecaps and blue and grey and LIFE! in that water, LIFE!
