Comments
I love comments. I love reading comments on others’ blogs. I love when someone comments on something I write. I like leaving them, too. Unfortunately, I am particularly bad at doing it. I read most of my blogs in Google Reader. This makes it harder to comment. It is especially hard when I forget about them for a few days and the unread posts pile up into the hundreds. I end up skimming more than I would like. I also just find that I feel like I don’t have time to stop and comment. Booo! I know. Here I am writing about how much I enjoy reading what others have to say, and I give a lame-o excuse for not doing it myself.
I guess I need to do something about it. Either I need to read fewer blogs (can’t see this happening), or I need to make it a priority (that sounds like a great idea, Casey!). 
So, those of you whose blogs I read will (hopefully) be seeing more comments from me in the future!
I use google reader too and hardly ever make it to the actual blogs to leave comments. I have way too many blogs that I “read” and often let them get backed up and end up skimming. I did recently unsubscribe to a few that I *never* read though.
I switched from Bloglines to just using the blogger dashboard a few months ago. It stops me saving up loads of posts I want to comment on and makes me more likely to comment at the time.
I don’t comment on blogs as much as I would like to. I neglect my google reader to do other things, like play with Ladybug, go swimming, bake, or play around on Twitter. I go through ebbs and flows of wanting to be a good blogger and comment on other blogs so that people will come visit my blog. But it really is all about priorities. Right now I just don’t have the time because other things are more important. I still love blogging, and reading blogs, and commenting, and getting comments. But days are busy, weeks fly by, and before you know it, another season of life will have passed by.
Sorry, I’m turning my comment into a blog post of its own! Hope you’re having a great summer!
