Blogging, it turns out, is hard.

Sometimes you follow up the first mother’s day after her death with a visit from your stepfather. And then you take a week off work for a computer-free trans-atlantic trip featuring the scattering of her ashes.

When you come back to work on Monday, they tell you that they want you in Poland on Wednesday. You need to arrange everything, you go on the trip, and then suddenly it’s Friday and you’re heading into a holiday weekend.

It’s been three weeks since you’ve blogged, and you can’t even feel guilty about it, because it’s not like you’ve been squandering your blogging time watching bad television. Well, mostly not.

At least it’s Caturday.
