The Blog(lines) addiction

Bloglines is addictive. Even with the trusty Invisibility Cloak, it's all too available. I should be more selective in reading blogs, but as of now, I'll read anything that addresses

academics, students, etc.

blogs that talk about how hard people are working. Works like a guilt pill: it gets me started again.

Blogposts I don't read:

Call me Jack D. Ripper, but no posts about bodily fluids (the details of the effluvia generated by colds, sick kids, and intestinal complaints seem to inspire bloggers to wax poetic--not a great idea).

This is churlish, though, because I'm grateful that others write blogs (unlike this one) meant to be read by lurkers like me.
