Remember me?

Hi there, remember me?

I’m amazed that there’s still some traffic on my blog, although I’ve taken a break for six months. I can see from my latest posts that I was a bit disillusioned. There’s been half a year with simply too much work. So to avoid “hitting the wall” or getting “burned out”, I had to do some prioritizing. To be honest I really hate the ways we make phenomena caused by our lifestyle and stressful society into a diagnosis.  It’s like a new trend, you know. It’s like if you haven’t been burned out during your career, you haven’t worked hard enough. So just to be straight, it was far from that serious.

It was just more like writing these posts every other week or so, it started feeling like a duty, like a task to be done in the same way as unanswered e-mails, dishes at the kitchen sink, mowing the lawn or doing the laundry. It’s all those things that should be done during a day or a week or a month.

So then there’s the art of prioritizing: What must be done? Very little in fact, if you think about it: Going to work, eat and get enough sleep. Bonus for every time you manage to show up at the gym as well. This is also the time when you decide that your boss and your colleagues should appreciate you for your competence and for the job you actually do, instead of your clothes and how you look.

But this is also a time when you might feel a bit vulnerable deep inside. And this is a time when you don’t think about sex, or feel very sexy, or have much sex for that matter. But I suddenly remembered that originally when I started this, writing these posts used to make me feel sexy and attractive. So why not give it a try? After all, that’s why you’re here – to make me feel good and sexy and attractive, isn’t it?
