Conversation from this morning:
\nGennie: I think Esme has an upset stomach - she ate some newspaper yesterday.
\nAndrew: Yeah, some of those editorials can be a little hard to swallow.
\nGennie looks around for something heavy to throw at Andrew.<\/p>\n

I've been thinking about some ways of motivating myself to write more stuff here. I have lots of ideas and half-written bits and pieces, but I think the trouble is that I'm a perfectionist and hate \"putting stuff out there\" unless I'm completely happy with it. This is also why it takes me ages to reply to email sometimes.<\/p>\n

I think I need to change the way I think about this blog (again). Currently it's a sort of monster that I feel I need to keep on \"feeding\". Meanwhile I also have a personal website<\/a> that I also hardly ever update (except for the photos section). I think what I'd like to do is to take some of the pieces I have written here and put them on my website, and then start updating my website on a reasonably regular basis with new stuff. This new stuff will also appear here so that you don't need to keep checking my website. That way my website will be something I can be more proud of (so I'll be more likely to update it) and the things I write will accumulate into an impressive looking list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
