Though I tout myself as one badass mommyblogger, I am, in real life, fairly well mannered with few, if any vices. No smoking, no drugging and only the most genteel of social alcohol intake.
I do, however, go through periods of that intense habit - blog addiction. I'm certain I'm not the only one. For example, who's sneaking a BlogHer blog read in the cubicle right now? And maybe taking a quick look at your stats? Or even doing a fast it'll-take-only-five-minutes blog post?
Anyone?
Yup. Thought so.
Then, consider this gem of a post on Captain Me Planet your first step on the long road to blog addiction recovery.
It starts out so innocently. The desire to have a creative outlet. To vent. To connect with people who may be like minded. To get that affirmation when you say something brilliant.
You start writing pithy and insightful observations. You surf others's sites similar to, and not so similar to, your place. You notice this little thing called a site meter. Hey, they've got 7326 hits. And they've only been blogging for 3 months! What the heAnd she's got 14, 587 hits! And at least 34 comments PER post! Why do I have no comments? I want comments. I want hits. So subtly, you have been lured.
Sound familiar? Hmmmm?
If you're not deep into denial about your ~~whispered~~little blog problem, I encourage you to summon up your inner courage and read the rest of this enlightening and hysterically funny post.
Only, of course, if you want to. Your rehab is all up to you.
