Here is an interesting post about things you should avoid blogging about. I could not agree more with the following:
…There’s no real point to those “I can’t blog ’cause I’m too busy†posts other than giving a cop-out for not keeping up with your blog. People come to your blog to read your content, not your excuses for not producing your content…
What also puzzles me is why some bloggers apologize for not blogging as frequently as they think they should or as frequently as they used to. They usually start their posts with: “I’m sorry for not blogging recently. I have been busy doing bla bla bla”. I do not see the need for an apology here, do you?
So, I’m not going to apologize for not blogging as frequently as I used to recently, I just felt that I wanted to take a short break.
I also have my parents visiting from Lebanon. My mom is a great cook, I have been enjoying her delicious Lebanese dishes everyday, and gaining more weight everyday
. Moreover, my soon-to-be three month old baby Julie is keeping us really busy. Oops! did I say busy?!
Finally, I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and happy holidays.

The jam was not because of a car accident or because of bad weather (it was just raining) but it was because everyone was heading to the shopping mall (Washington Square mall, in case you live in Portland) which happens to be on my way home. Add to that the normal rush hour traffic, rrrrr! terrible.
This was a living proof that Xmas = Shopping.
Too bad I was not teleworking yesterday. I am today. Yes, I work from home two days a week which is really cool for the main reasons that I avoid traffic and do not need to shave in the morning
. But according to the Wall Street Journal, working at home isn’t the day at the beach office mates imagine.
In any case, Merry Christmas and enjoy the holidays…
