Sustained interest
I've got a pretty short attention span for many things, and I'm pretty sure blogging will probably fall into that clearly defined category of "many things".
That's likely to lead to me forgetting, in large part, to blog things that I mean to blog, perhaps for extended periods of time. In essence, that I'll forget that I am a blogger.
That's not really new to most people -- I'm sure many people experience similar situations day to day.
Take thunder, for example.
His dedication to his sexual preference is clearly lacking. While conversing with this chap, he mentioned, to my utter shock and disbelief, that he has a girlfriend, and furthermore, that he's been with-girlfriend for about two months.
Clearly thunder has forgotten that he's gay. Perhaps had he a sustained interest in his homosexuality, he'd not have forgotten that key fact, and wouldn't have to deal with all those awkward situations that are bound to arise.
You know the ones I mean.
In some fashion, though, it's clear to me that subjects in which he does have a sustained interest, will find ways in which to manifest the interests he has perhaps a lesser ability to sustain.
Isn't that comforting to know?
I suppose that if you, reader, are willing to forgive thunder his transgressions due to his inability to have a sustained interest in certain of his pursuits, you might just be willing to forgive me when I forget to blog for long periods of time.
And if not, it doesn't really matter -- I'll just call you gay when I get back to my blog.
