"Kids, TV.com and I are having problems..."
by Midwestrocker on Comments
Yesterday, I realized I had a problem. It was around my fifth hour on the site (yes, fifth) when I started panicking. I had finished all my blopping and I was looking for something else to do. I tried forums, but that couldn't keep my interest. So I tried submitting. I couldn't think of anyone I wanted to submit to, and when I did I didn't submit more than two things before I wanted to move on to someone else. So I thought "Alright, let's calm down. Let's write some reviews." But I couldn't think of a single thing I wanted to review. Not a person, show, or episode called me. It seemed like the things on the site could no longer hold my interest. I kept roaming around for something that could, but I came up with nothing. You may not know this, but these are the symptoms of TV.com burnout. When you've done everything you can do at least twice, things aren't quite as exciting. I know this feeling well, since I've had it before. There are many sites that I've spent many hours on, only to leave after a month or so of activity. I don't think this is going to be one of those sites, because I still want to be here. With the others, I couldn't have cared less. But this one is special. Still, I need to take precautions. I'm taking a TV.com break. Maybe for a while, maybe for today. I don't know yet. I just know that I need some time away. I'm going to stay off the site until I miss it; until I can come back refreshed and ready to dive in again. Don't get me wrong, TV.com and I are not getting divorced: we're simply having a brief sabbatical. I'm sure that after a couple of days away, I'll realize why I fell in love with TV.com to begin with. In the meantime, I apologize ahead of time for not blogging, blopping, posting, or scaring people in general. And when I get back someone has to tell me everything that happened while I was gone. Everything. So that's all. I'll catch you guys later, have a good one. PS: Check out my new "About Me" section. I've been meaning to do one of those for some time. And oh yeah, I'm a Golden Girl. And my favorite one too. Yay!
