The Downfall of a Blog

Because I am quite busy and have absolutely no time to spare, I find myself with no time to sit and ponder what to write about. For this reason, I must write about nothing in particular in order to check something off of my to-do list, which is literally a page long. (Hooray)

I feel acutely terrible for being generally uncreative with this blog entry, but for the sake of time this blog has become a martyr of sorts. Who knows, perhaps because of its selfless actions it will be celebrated in later years. One can never be sure, but I can vouch for the fact that this blog is kindhearted and truly deserves to be not sacrificed. However, because of self interest, it must be sacrificed anyway. This may come across as unconditionally cruel, and I certainly apologize, but there is nothing that can be done now.

This blog is perishing slowly at a constant rate, like one of those large containers of Ovaltine over a summer. Daily a mother will supply her child with a single tablespoon of chocolate powder diffused into a tall glass of milk. Each day the container loses one tablespoon, slowly chipping away at the whole until it is nothing but an empty shell. Yes, this situation is synonymous with the demise of this very blog. The fall is constant, unless of course the child discovers a stepstool as to reach the counter on his own. From there, the demise would occur sporadically- two or three table spoons one day, varying from the generous four table spoons of the day before. Occurring in spastic amounts, the fall is far more painful- like short bursts of agony. Now the blog’s fate is to be determined by the greedy, insatiable child instead of the level-headed mother.

Thankfully I believe that this blog is in virtually no pain and is at this very moment quite comfortable. I think it may even believe itself to be a hero. I will encourage this blog that it is correct in its thinking, but when I turn around I will cackle devilishly.

I do have a conscience, and it is thudding deeply in my skull, but I logically realize that as soon as this blog is done with I can devote my energies to other areas of study. True, the collapse of this blog is unfortunate, but it is of stark necessity.
