I am back from Los Angeles. It's taken me a few days to get my blogging mojo back. I had a fantastic time with a href="http://www.mommazen.blogspot.com/"span style="font-style:italic;"Momma Zen/span/a author Karen Maezen Miller, both at our Sierra Madre Books event, and just hanging out with our families.br /br /You see, it turns out that even Disneyland, even life in Los Angeles the day Michael Jackson and Farrah Fawcett died, is more span style="font-style:italic;"real life/span than sitting behind a computer all day, looking for material to blog about. For a week, I really was where I was, in the world, not in cyberspace. Here Karen and I were waiting in line for Pirates of the Caribbean (with our families, who are out of the frame). No mouse ears for us, just MojoMom.com caps! br /br /a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_JOWYO5KTz1b4ePZQaZlKATlVmVwlrOHYYaqBGLr19JsxTdiTMEdcFhRmfa9BDSBV2Iiq4AHlbxqvQzeIvNyBlg-zW_aB9LIWNOrrDPV-FpLVJtqj7G-A1eLDw-mbfoxnddEADk5k1Hz5/s1600-h/mzdisney.jpg"img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 317px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_JOWYO5KTz1b4ePZQaZlKATlVmVwlrOHYYaqBGLr19JsxTdiTMEdcFhRmfa9BDSBV2Iiq4AHlbxqvQzeIvNyBlg-zW_aB9LIWNOrrDPV-FpLVJtqj7G-A1eLDw-mbfoxnddEADk5k1Hz5/s320/mzdisney.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5353545455214827074" //abr /This week away makes me realize that I need to carve out separate time for writing projects, and blogging. I still want to blog---I cherish this opportunity to reach out to readers on an instant basis. But I may begin to rely more on short-form communication like Twitter and Facebook to share links that I do not have time to write extensive posts on.br /br /Too much web-surfing is really affecting my brain. I need to take my own advice about a href="http://mojomom.blogspot.com/2009/05/mojo-mom-chapter-5-centering-silence.html#links""Reclaiming my mind space"/a and really look at my mental environment. For example, I came across these a href="http://gawker.com/5304947/worst-tech-commercial-ever-probably"idiotic new Microsoft ads./a The first one is just gross and stupid. I am not going to post it here. You can see it on the link if you wish but I warn you, it involved internet porn and projectile vomiting. The second ad pretty much sums up how my brain feels after a day of surfing. This is what I am trying to avoid:br /br /object width="425" height="344"param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/JyQolo0Xdqwcolor1=0xb1b1b1color2=0xcfcfcfhl=enfeature=player_embeddedfs=1"/paramparam name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/paramparam name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/paramembed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/JyQolo0Xdqwcolor1=0xb1b1b1color2=0xcfcfcfhl=enfeature=player_embeddedfs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="425" height="344"/embed/objectbr /br /So here's my commitment to you: For quick communications and interesting links, I will share info through a href="http://twitter.com/mojo_mom"Twitter/a and a href="http://www.new.facebook.com/mojomom.page"Facebook./a And when I have something more substantial intelligent to say, I will blog about it! If I am not blogging, I may just be offline, writing my next book!div class="blogger-post-footer"img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8494775-6962502580577645644?l=mojomom.blogspot.com'//div
