No more words

I'm not going to lie, I hate reading blogs where they only post once a month or less and then always start their post with "I'm so bad at this blogging thing. I promise I'm going to do better." However I do feel a need to explain my lack of blogging.

The fall time in campus ministry is rough. It's long hours and extended weeks and just cray cray schedules. It also takes a ton of relationship building and spending time with new people. For this current fall season, I have often found myself completely out of words by the end of the day. By the time I get home at night, it's like I have nothing else to say or write even. And I almost feel the need to conserve my words so that I have enough to use for the next day and the rest of the week.

I was catching up with a friend from out of state on the phone the other day. By the end of a forty-five minute conversation, I think I had talked maybe ten minutes of it. Later I apologized for my lack of communicating. It was just that he had caught me on one of my craziest days and I just had nothing else, no more words.

I check my blog and the blog of others every day. And every day I pause and try to think of something to write, but it's like I've just run out of words. Hopefully soon my word quota will either increase or I won't have to use so many during the day.

Until then......
