Blogger's Block

I don't know what it is, but my writing, or blogging in this case, has hit a brick wall in recent days. It's a tad bit perplexing, because my mind has been overloaded with thoughts, so why this transfers to a lack of ideas when writing I find to be unusual. I mean, sure, I've had writer's block before, where I'll be working on a manuscript and can't seem to find any new ideas or find a certain flow to the book that I had attained before the block made its presence known. But, for blogging? Really? I could blog about anything, from sports to music to politics to a dream I had about a water buffalo scuba diving and getting into a battle with a Great White Shark for underwater supremacy.

Perhaps this has been due to many personal real-life situations that have been on my mind of late, from being ill to thoughts and plans for the future to a dating interest and I don't really care to write about any of that. However, when it comes to current events, jokes and storytelling, I'm currently running on empty.

I'm not even sure why I'm writing this. What is the point of blogging about my problems blogging? I might as well write a book about writer's block. The book would be 214 pages, but only 106 of which would be complete, leaving 108 blank pages and screwing people out of a few dollars. Yeah, it'd be a lovely temporary business solution, but call it a hunch, the majority of my customers wouldn't have much interest in a second book I authored.

I'm hoping that by admitting to my problem it is the first step to finding a cure and fully getting over this issue of mine. Okay, so I've admitted I have a problem. What's the next step? Get help. Alright. Where can I find help for blogger's block? Is there a class I can take for this or a book entitled, "A Dummy's Guide to Defeating Blogger's Block"? I have yet to see such a book, but have also yet to see Uranus and that doesn't dismiss from the fact it exists.

So, I finish this blog right where I began, yet for the time being, I guess I sort of defeated Blogger's Block by writing a blog regarding the fact I'm having issues coming up with ideas to blog about.
