My new job is just much more demanding than my previous one. At the old job, I did have a lot of work, and it had its challenges, but there were slow days kind of built into the system and blogging was rarely problem (although, I’m sure it would have been for Management, had they known).
At the current job, I am more value (yay) and there’s always a stack of wriiting I can’t get to because other things have higher priority. Plus I’m working on a book kind of actively now, so I am not blogging much in the evenings.
Which is why you haven’t seen trivia.
I am suspending trivia indefinitely. I ask 7 questions a week most weeks, and I don’t SEE 7 movies a week. After approximately four years, I am drying up on interesting questions.
I haven’t been that successful introducing new features. I don’t want or need the blog to discipline me right now. I’d rather keep it here to write about movies, Paganism, language, and whatever else crosses my mind.
I’m very glad the new job is working out so well, even if it means less blogging. (New book? Teaser? Hints?)
Want me to host trivia at my place for awhile? That’ll give everyone a chance to keep playing, plus I can hand it back if you ever feel like running it again.
You can certainly host the triva, that’d be great. Except for how all you know is cheesy B horror movies. 😉
Currently, my efforts are in the Mad Men book, but there are other projects on the burners.
Hey, I know some classics, too! I just don’t talk about it very often, because I have a reputation to uphold.
Plus, to quote George, I’ve got mad IMDB skills. I’ll get a post up ASAP.
Hope that it balances out for you though. And maybe the new job is more demanding, but I hope that you’re also LIKING the new job.
I *do* like the new job. I am valued and I am learning.
Bam! Tuesday Trivia 2.0 has gone live.
[…] remember how, a couple o’ weeks back, Deborah axed Tuesday Trivia? Well, I am nothing if not a fan of reincarnation, so it’s now going strong over at my […]
