Not many people read this blog anymore. Too many companies block it so my friends can't access it at work. At least, that's what they tell me. They don't say they don't have the time or the inclination when they're at home. They don't say it's because my writing has disintegrated, or because I'm too lazy to post more than a couple of times a week so it's not worth the effort. They don't say it's because I don't write about them as much anymore, now that we're not working together.
I do get the occassional blog surfer dropping in and they often stay long enough to read several pages. I know this because I have a counter that let's me see how many people a day view the blog and how many pages are viewed. It also tells me where visitors are from (but, rest assured, I can't see your names or any other identifying information), and I sometimes get visitors from overseas. I hope I make a good impression on them, for America's sake.
Anyway, I don't know how much longer I'll be doing this. I started it for myself, and for a class that's long over. I don't seem the time or the inclination to write anymore than my friends have to read. I don't know their excuse, but I think it's because I have been struck down with ennui.

She said ENNUI, you dipstick, not EMU!
(Ennui (on-we) is a reactive state to wearingly dull, repetitive, or tedious stimuli: suffering from a lack of interesting things to see, hear, etc., or do (physically or intellectually), while not in the mood of "doing nothing". )
