My main excuse is that I've only got dial-up internet at home, and at work we're not allowed to use the internet for non-work related stuff (and my company is really serious about that rule).
Another excuse is that I'm busy. This seems to be the standard American excuse; we all have cell phones and they we use them to call and say "I'm in traffic, be there in five minutes". Seriously, though, I've been busy. Last week Monday through Wednesday I went from work to the missions conference at First Presbyterian downtown each evening, didn't get home until late, and then had to try and finish reading Brave New World for my church's book club. The book club met Thursday night, and then I headed up Lookout Mountain to watch "I Heart Huckabees" with Mark and Amy Rico and two current Covenant students at Tuggy's apartment (but she though dancing in the Maclellan circle was more important than watching a movie with friends!)
Friday evening Aaron and Larissa were home for Fall Break, and Saturday I could have blogged but spent my time doing other stuff around the house. In the evening I went to Greyfriar's with intentions to blog, but ended up hand-writing real, paper letters to a family I got to know in the church in Glasgow, Scotland, whilst studying there, and to two missionaries my church supports. Then I went over to the Tortilla Factory where I spent far too much on a Guinness, but enjoyed hanging out with some folks I hadn't seen in a while.
Perhaps if I discipline myself to write at least a brief paragraph every day or two, even if its on paper, then I could just type it up real quick on my blog. Hmm, blog, read, write, talk, hang out, play the piano, do random stuff...
