			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="margin: 5px; float: left;" src="http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/26/Windows_Calendar_logo.png/75px-Windows_Calendar_logo.png" alt="" />It was a lot &#8211; being unemployed can put a cramp on one&#8217;s mood that&#8217;s sure. Even when you have a project to work on, there is that small detail that you actually has no income and you just watch your saving ever so slowly melt away. So it can put a bit of a pressure on you, and then <a class="zem_slink" title="Blog" rel="wikipedia" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blog" onclick="">blogging</a> becomes not that important.</p>
<p>And then there is the fact that I can&#8217;t write just whenever, I actually need something to write about, something that makes sense,? when I don&#8217;t feel like I have something to say I tend not to write &#8211; I just go and talk on <a href="http://plurk.com" onclick="">Plurk</a>.</p>
<p>Then whenever I have an idea, it usually ends up abandoned, mainly because probably it has already been written about by a huge group and then why should I write about it?</p>
<p>Of course, it has been told several times that</p>
<ol>
<li>there is nothing new under the sun</li>
<li>this should not keep people from writing</li>
<li>this is a very lame excuse anyway</li>
</ol>
<p><a title="Meet Karen Swim" href="http://wordsforhirellc.com/blog/meet-karen-swim/" onclick="">Karen</a> wrote a pretty good post on this issue titled <a href="http://wordsforhirellc.com/blog/2009/03/23/silent-no-more/" onclick="">Silent no More</a>. Pretty descriptive and good writing &#8211; in case you wondered, that&#8217;s why she runs a business based on writing stuff and not me &#8211; and you know she is absolutely right, it&#8217;s just a shame that even though I agree with her I still am reluctant to write about stuff you can already find on the net. And if you are there read about my <a href="http://wordsforhirellc.com/blog/2009/04/08/why-the-shallow-end-of-the-pool-is-better-than-dry-land/" onclick="">other favourite excuses</a> for not writing &#8211; what? Yes, I&#8217;ve got excuses for that. I think about 5 or 10 of them. You haven&#8217;t?</p>
<p>But I will have to write something, because</p>
<ol>
<li> when I started a series of posts, it&#8217;s only natural that I started with a topic from the middle, then I set the publish date for the future and if I am not careful it will post itself part 6 following part 3.</li>
<li>I have received the monthly bill for the site, and it is common sense to do something with the site if I pay for it anyway. Otherwise it&#8217;s just wasting money.</li>
</ol>
<p>No promises, but I will try my best to push out some posts. Continuing the <a href="http://fracturedbloughts.rolandhesz.com/series/some-thoughts-on-the-uml/" onclick="">planned series</a>, writing about <a href="http://opensimulator.org/wiki/Main_Page" onclick="">OpenSim</a> and whatever comes to mind.</p>
