The Misadventures of José Faxner

So, um… why is it that every one of my posts here seem to start off with me feeling bad about never writing? Well, that’s easy to answer; it’s cause I never write. But I mean, why is that, really? At this point it’s gotten pretty ridiculous - I’m unemployed and essentially I spend my entire day sitting on my ass doing absolutely nothing, yet I can’t find a couple of minutes to spare so I can keep whoever reads this up to date. I mean, I know I’m lazy, anyone know who knows me would say that’s old news… but this is reaching new heights even for me. I enjoy writing, but I still can’t be bothered doing it.

On several occasions in the last, oh, 8 months or so, I’ve seriously considered just saying “fuck it”, and setting aside a few minutes every day to write on my blog. Doesn’t matter if I don’t have anything of value to write about, cause it’d still be better than not writing at all (and furthermore I really can’t picture the day I’ll have nothing to rant about), and hopefully working under some self-imposed pressure I would get something done. Well, obviously that hasn’t happened yet. And I certainly can’t make a promise like that now either. Sure, I’ve got all the time in the world right now, but I know myself. That said though, maybe I’ll try giving it a shot? As it happens, I’m moving this weekend so perhaps I will actually, genuinely, be too busy to write, but I think I owe it to whoever might be reading this to at least try to make the effort.

I want to do something about the site as well. Change the header first of all; for one I’m not even in Japan anymore, and “Jig in Sweden” sounds retarded so I’ll need to come up a new fun name for it. Preferably I’d have some slightly more exciting graphics up there as well.

Not sure if I’ve written a post this long with this little to say (actually I probably have), and while I could come up with a number of things to write about, I think I’ll call it a day. I figure more snack-sized posts would be better than the few-and-far-between essays the blog has generally consisted of so far. Plus, this way, I can come back tomorrow and write a normal post, instead of coming back in two weeks whining about how I never post.
