It's Tuesday so I must have the day to myself. And indeed I do, from 9:00 to 4:30 and then I have to go to work.
Reading some other, more serious blogs, I wonder what the hell I can do with this...
If you are going to write a good blog - one that people other than yourself will want to read, you need a few things:
1. It has to be well written.
2. It has to have something interesting and/or entertaining to say.
3. It shouldn't just be a boring list of what you did.
4. Don't wear your heart on your sleeve, because people don't really care.
5. It shouldn't suck
There may be other rules, but those 5 will be enough to be getting on with.
Of course the other thing is time. How much time are you going to devote to writing this stufff? You have to get into a routine. Or you have too have a lot time - time at the office when you should be doing proper workk, that's proberbly the best time write blogs.

In the office, 5:20pm. I caught a cold, either from Patrick or Harumi, and now my head feels like a treacle pudding, except without the treacle.
A hot and humid day. I was afraid the two Time Out chocolate bars would melt before I got them back to the office. It's only 5 minutes to the 99 Yen shop but the air is like oven out there.

Patrick woke at 5:00 am this morning... well, my alarm was set for 6:00, so what's another hour?
About 60 minutes actually.

The first post for a year or so...I wonder if it still works?

Sitting in the office in the morning at 10:00 waiting to leave at 4:30 to go an evening class in Musashi Kosugi at 6:00 to 8:00 and then I can go home and spend the last 3 hours of the day eating dinner playing No One Lives Forever and then it's bloody time for bed...Am I missing something here?
