Sorry I haven't posted in awhile

"I know I have not posted in quite awhile due to personal training, appearances and DVD slaes skyrocketing, but I dod want everyone to know - I AM STILL A VEGAN NUT!" [LINK]

This guy says he hasn't blogged in awhile because he's busy becoming a full-time blogger. [LINK]

"work has rurned out to be a curse and blessing, more money but I work with a bunch of alcoholics" [LINK]

"I've been busy But not much has been happening in my life other than working." [LINK]

"The reason...extreme working. " [LINK]

"I got promoted to an officer in my World of Warcraft guild "Trick Model" on Illidan. "[LINK]

"
It must be because I haven't done much around the house to brag about! The place still looks the same, so this must mean that I am at least maintaining the mess instead of adding to it. I still have a piles everywhere." [LINK]

"Yesterday I wrote a heavy-handed piece about individualism and the merits of self-sufficiency, but I decided not to post it because it was not consistent with the cheerful character that is Cooper." (Warning: scary photo.) [LINK]

"I just don't enjoy it as much as I convince myself I do" [LINK]

"I tried to post, I really did. I even have some started and saved as drafts. But, I didn't feel that I had much to say. I'm not pregnant, I'm without faith, life sucks, job is starting to feel stagnant, Sean and I are bickering back and forth for the past two weeks about the stupidest things." [LINK]

"
there isn't anything new about the adoption just the same old 'waiting game' " [LINK]

"I just haven't found the need to express my thoughts for the whole world to see lately." [LINK]

"I've been honestly overwhelmed by trying to keep up with my two language courses" [LINK]

"
Mainly because I haven't taken the time for my mental to be at ease allowing my thoughts to flow." [LINK]

"I think a post I wrote a couple weeks ago was too big and clogged up one of the tubes leading to my "own personal internet." Fortunately I just bought some eDrano, so things should be fine now." [LINK]

"
mostly because my internet sucks ass up here in the apt." [LINK]

"I've been in a state of flux." [LINK]

"once again my world zoomed out of control." [LINK]

"
I feel like I haven't posted in awhile even though my last post was only on Sunday." [LINK]

"Wow it seems like every other post I'm apologizing for not posting in awhile... hmmm... anywho... sorry I haven't posted in awhile: have been busy." [LINK]

"So, I got paid twenty bucks to write this. " [LINK]

"I forgot my password..." [LINK]

"
bc I knew my next post would address the current war in Lebanon" [LINK]

"I've been busy shooting soccer teams." [LINK]

"Sometimes it can be exhaustingly overwhelming to say what you think, which is why I haven't posted in awhile." [LINK]

"I haven't had the internet and I have been drunk or busy alot. I kind of did a minor (for me) crash and burn when I found out Selissa was fucking one of my friends (after we broke up). The night I walked in on them I had just spent about 200 dollars on boxing gear for this guy, because he wanted me to teach him how to fight. Anyway, everyone has something to mope about. Truth is, there really can be no rules for this sort of thing." [LINK]

"I've been really bummed. I went shopping" [LINK]

"Both lazy & busy or just busy being lazy. " [LINK]

"more than the usual laziness was involved" [LINK]

"I would like to blame it on the excess of greasy iftaar goodies that reek havoc on any sane person's digestive system, but alas, it is my own laziness" [LINK]

"I was hoping to make a celebratory declaration about the new oven's arrival. The good news is, it did finally arrive on Wednesday afternoon. The bad news is, it's been a nightmare ever since it got here!" [LINK]

I'm sorry I haven't posted in awhile. I've been so busy, but hopefully we'll catch up on things. Anyway, my great-grandmother died today." [LINK]

"
I had a really bad end to my summer" [LINK]

"I've been very depressed since Ginger died." [LINK]

"We are on 'vacation.'"
[LINK]

"I have felt that I have nothing much that I want to write about. This is bad not because I delude myself to think that anyone is depending on me writing in my little blog but because the introspection that I do while blogging is good for me." [LINK]

"I had a bout of food poisoning, from McDonald's of all places." [LINK]

Scouts, college football ... [LINK]

"In a nutshell, I ran horribly in August." [LINK]

"as you know I had to send in my computer and it hasn't come back yet therefore I haven't been on the computer as much. For some reason though, I am actually kind of thinking of this as a good thing. " [LINK]

"I've been sick for the past couple weeks and haven't really felt like mood themeing." [LINK]

"I keep thinking 'I'll wait one more day until there's some news and THEN I'll post an update.' But all those 'one more day's end up with little info."
[LINK]

"
I've just been so damn busy at work, and tired, and sick, and pregnant." [LINK]

"I was planning on working more on my chibi characters. " [LINK]

"I've been jousting with a computer virus for the last several days." [LINK]

"
I haven't posted in awhile (that's kinda self-evident, but don't all bloggers make a point to say something like "i haven't blogged in awhile" or "sorry, i've been busy" when they haven't blogged in a while...i am just following the blog rules!)." [LINK]

"I haven't posted in awhile and still really don't have much to say. " [LINK]

How about "boingboing linked to me and now I'm even more of a voyeuristic cunt?"

Come on, how about including my post?

I almost used "I had to kill my cat because she was sick which is why I haven't been blogging" recently, but I am thanking the heavens that I rejected the thought out of hand. No excuses.

That's quite a collection you've got, by the way.

This random (?) collection of excuses makes me feel better because I identify with life sucking so much that even blogging mana is drained.

My favorite excuse is "I've been in a state of flux."

Great idea for a post, best thing I've read in awhile and I'm on it twice. Cheers.

I had to download one of my old blogs post-by-post to archive it, and you've no idea how mortifying it was to come across all those "sorry I haven't blogged recently" posts. I've done a round dozen today so far, not that I'm overcompensating...

Life...I used to have one of those. My life may suck, but by god my blog kicks ass! Priorities, people!

I want to thank you for posting these excuses. They are hilarious! Also, your post gave me something to blog about---so now I don't have to make up an excuse for not posting in a while. :-)

Sorry for not commenting sooner. My cat Ralphy managed to hide my keyboard again and refused to divulge it's location. He apparently apreciates the irony of going after the keyboard and not the mouse.

My haitus ended after three months when I started promising an update to my eatspace friends. Would you like to hear the excuse?

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I was attacked by a press gang. I managed to escape when a pirate crew ransacked the cruiser we were on and set me adrift. I floated for days before coming back ashore.

Lionel - I dunno - eatspace might actually work. Suppose you hang out with a bunch of friends at a cafe that sit on a couch all the time...

Excellent... I may have to use some of these myself.

My favorite is: "I just don't enjoy it as much as I convince myself I do."

I have that feeling some days, too, for sure!

I am amused.

As far as other commenters go, you may be voyeuristic, but I don't think you're a cunt. After all, aren't they the ones taking the time to comment on what you say?

Last time I've been 8 days off, my excuse has been that "My provider decided I needed another week off the net. Very kind of them to care about me..."
Well, that's basically true. When I called their customer service to complain they said that the terminals reported "everything works fine".

The best one I've ever seen was "Sorry I haven't posted in a while. I have gonorrhea." Unfortunately, I can't find the URL, though I am fairly sure it was a livejournal.

Here's my favorite: http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=11544922&postID=116129111515038620&isPopup=true. I guess "I'm in the psyche ward" is a legitimate excuse.

Remember the one where the girl said "I have to stop blogging because my new husband said so?" or words to that effect...

I just made a "sorry I haven't posted in a while" post -yesterday-...

I couldn't help but think about how blogger cliche' it was as I was writing it.

Turns out, I was right. Thanks for rubbing it in!
