Hey everybody. Sorry that I haven’t been as blog active these past few months. Things kinda got out of hand for me ever since my Octoberween Blog last year. Tried as I might to get back into the swing of things, my life situations just tended to get in the way and of course had to take top priority. I’ve tried my best to keep up with people’s blogs (and commenting when I can) but as usual I’m still behind by 15 days with my various inboxes. Better than 30 though!
But that won’t stop me in trying to participate in this year’s BaD’s. It may be one of the few vestiges of 1up.com that remains, besides the bloggers who once frequent the site that is. And it’s more important now than ever since 1up.com’s community functions have been disabled AND the site itself is getting buggy, thus making it harder to locate certain blogs/articles.
So far when I’ve taken part in Blog A Day, I haven’t been able to finish. One year it was disgust with the quality of my blogs, another year was my local internet crapping out due to the seasonal extremes of the cold weather in my area. Hopefully this year I can keep it up. But I’m not promising anything. Here are the reasons:
Weekend blogs are up in the air.
I know BaD doesn’t recognize weekend blogs, thus making it easier to keep with the BaD commitment, but I’ve tried to as “Bonus BaDs” if only to make my blogs a bit different. Though I’ll try to make “Bonus BaDs” this year I won’t push myself to do such if things get busy with my life like they usually do whenever I try to make a firm commitment to a set blogging schedule.
I can’t comment to every single BaD anymore.
The reason for this is simple. I just don’t have the time. I’m lucky I can READ all the BaDs, let alone write my own. Personally I like commenting to people blogs, to help nurture the spirit of the BaDs with community interaction and inter-personal understanding, yet tried as I might last year I just got so far behind. The best I can do is read the said blogs and perhaps write a BaD from the ideas I get from the said blog, if only to show that not only are your BaDs being read but that they are fostering ideas that might surprise you. I’ll try to comment to people who post on my blogs but I advise anyone not to feel obligated to do such. I’m sure everyone’s time is short and I’m just happy that people read what I blog. Knowing that is enough for me to foster the goodwill that comes with BaD.
Nothing too elaborate or fancy.
Though I’ll try to write something unique and interesting during BaD I can’t promise much. I have lots of ideas but as usual very little time to implement them. I do have some past blogs I could post that are prepped and reading (RWBY Tuesday, Online Pass Watch etc.) but fine tuning them usually takes time. I also have something in mind special for my birthday month but we’ll see what happens. I’m just looking forward to celebrating my birthdays this year…
So with that said let me finish this Bonus BaD with the usual thought of the day:
Frak the Patriots!
Ta-ta
“N”
hey, there you are! Glad to see u blogging again. Don't worry about commenting on all the blogs, it's hard always to do so, it's the thought that counts around here, and I'm glad you're gonna give BaD a try.
I saw on twitter you've been playing a lot of Ace Combat. MAybe when I trade TV's with my parents I'll give that whirl. My TV is small to play video games on.
Yeah, that superbowl was kind of lame. the commercials were lame too. Ah, lameness all around!
I'm not going to do the Blog a Day thing, but I hope you find time to read my blogs anyway!
You tend to be verbose, my friend, and you have very high standards for your blogs. That makes BaD more difficult but your blogs are always interesting, so I'm not sure what to tell you lol. Best of luck! I'll try to read and comment on everything I can but we're all in the same boat here. Hopefully we can make it through to the end.
Knowing you Nsonic, you'll be commenting on BaD blogs in June. 
I was going for the Seahawks, but you can't not run it with Marshawn Lunch a yard away from the goal line.
I look forward to falling behind in BaD-ness. Just so fun!
I wouldn't worry about it too much and just try to have fun. Nobody expects you to be able to comment on everything. Good luck with BaD though, Sonic!
Ehh don't worry Sonic, i'm sure you'll keep up with BaD. Now that you mentioned Octoberween, maybe you can post the remaining games, even if it isn't October.
I heard once a blog should be about 250 words. I try that but I always do about 500 or a little more. For BaD, I started thinking of all these big plans, but then I decided to just wing it. I think that's best anyway. Just short blogs about whatever's on your mind at the time. That's what I'm doing.
I am still basking in that Super Bowl win.
