Let’s Fullscreen This Puppy

“Just as I’m getting more and more comments from other bloggers, I have run out of blogosoup.” This is what went through my head as I washed the dishes this morning. Then I tried imagining what blogosoup would taste like. What kind of potion could you create to cure writer’s block? Something worth talking about. I guess, if I wanted to continue to write snarky yet funny things, it would have to be something hilariously bad.

I think I just want some really comforting soup. Winter is ending and I’d like to send the last days balled up on my couch with a big ol’ mug of blogosoup. To add to the ambiance, I’ll look on youtube for a video of a roaring fireplace and fullscreen it.

Commenters: Give me advice on how to make a blogosoup. Jack needs to be fed.

    I am so ready for this winter to be over it’s not even funny.

    Aw, winter ain’t so bad. It means scarves! Hooray for scarves.

    I like the scarf that I bought on my last day in Japan (I bought it at The Gap, so it’s nothing special but I like it nonetheless).

    When did you go to Japan? How’s the weather? I never can tell because even though it’s located about the same place we are (well, I am, I guess…;) on the other side, it’s surrounded by water. I guess I could just go to weather.com and find out myself.

    And this hasn’t been a good winter at all. The south is bad about that… too many blue skies, sunny days and cool breezes. ;)

    Umm… and soup… You could write a story. One about soup. And throw in lots and lots of different bloggers as characters. I don’t know… it’s late here. Hope you find some ideas.

    i’d say just throw some tequila and lime juice in a cup and call it a day. mix in some needtoshareeverythingunderthesun and you’ve got yourself some delicious blogosoup.

    you need to be part exhibitionist, part blabbermouth, part questioner of life, part search the internet for memes when inspiration just doesn’t come :)

    poodlegoose: I went to Japan in November of last year. It was pretty similar to Seattle weather except more sunlight, less clouds. Still, it was very very pretty.

    Mike: That is a recipe for beating your wife. Not blogging.

    Ashley: That sounds more like it. I may just pick up a bottle of tequila and some limes. You know what? I need to buy some shot glasses while I’m at it.

    Tiff: That is a good, non-alcoholic answer. Very practical. :D

    Blogosoup should contain some fish headers and sausage links in the broth.

    Blogosoup … I love that! Writers block creeps in just when you start building momentum. I find that I need to make blogosoup when the thoughts and ideas are fresh, otherwise I let them marinate and get stale before they ever make it out into the world.
