Again, a Saturday Latin Insult… posted a day late.

I’m feeling a little disappointed in myself. My posts have been a little weak. My brain has been a little scattered. I’m lacking whatever the “it” is that writers struggle to maintain. Sometimes you’ve got “it”, and sometimes you don’t. “It” comes and goes. But for the moment, my “it” is missing… for sure. So today I pour on a little self-pity, Latin style. Today I ask you to run away… run from my blog. Flee. Save yourself from my incompetent prose and underdone ramblings.

“Qui gravis es nimium, potes hinc iam, abire quo libet”

–If you are likely to be the really pernickety type of reader, do you mind leaving now? Just head in the direction of absolutely anywhere else.

(Martial, Epigrams XI.16)

   That could be the tagline for my blog!

   Your blog is fabulous, even if you’re not feeling it right now. It is. Really and truly.
