Procrastinating about procrastinating

Ive not blogged in a few weeks due to a number of factors.

1. I've been busy at work and not had the energy or mental capacity to sit down and write/type when I get home. Instead Ive been content to be drip fed repeat episodes of programmes I hate.
2. I've decided to spend less time in front of electronic gadgets in my spare time which ultimately means that my already infrequent rate of blogging is about as reliable as Alistair Darlings financial predictions.
3. The Sun has been shining for a couple of days over the last few weeks and I want to spend as much time as possible basking in it before it disappears for another 360 days.
4. I've actually socialised for the first time in months which has led to me becoming more outgoing and willing to mingle with real people.
   
5. My mother always used to tell me "if you haven't got anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all". For some inexplicable reason I hear her voice in my head repeating these words whenever I feel a rant coming on.
6. I'm also thinking of starting a new direction for my ramblings as all this cynicism and biting wit is starting to make me question my very being. For example, I'm now cynical about everything, without exception and simply cannot see the good side of anyone or thing. I asked the missus the other night if I had always been like this and she said that I have always been slow to accept the world and the people around me but had got noticeably worse since we moved back to England (coincidence?). Apparently other people have also noticed this but simply put it down to the winter blues.

So those are my reasons for not gracing you all with my presence for a while. I don't know when I'll be back but I'm sure I will be as soon as I feel sufficiently motivated.
