1) you are having a great and intimate time here and maybe you just want to keep these nice things to yourself ;)

We write about things that piss us off, things that scare us, and when we have something to complain about." Hi Erin: well if that statement proves to be true then don't worry, soon enough you will find a lot of inspiration and be out of the writers block. As time goes by and you get to know Costa Rica you will find a lot of things to complain about and piss you off. Especially when you have to deal with the bureaucracy of this country. Believe me, I know. As a Costa Rican I've had to deal with it first-hand. Take care! “personal bloggers write most when they’re dissatisfied about something.

I want to know if you received it or not because I heard back from you. I will send you another email with my cel. phone number included. After all, if you can't get inspired enough to write blogs you probably won't find inspiration to write e-mails to your fellow bloggers, however, I hope you inspired enough to dial a phone number LOL.

Siempre estaremos en la persecución del bienestar, jamás estaremos satisfechos, nunca llegaremos al bienestar definitivo. Por eso, pienso que hablar de los problemas no está mal. De hecho es un des-estresante, porque al fin -al menos en el campo de los blogs- tenemos voz y opinión. Hasta puede que sea el camino para ponernos toda la humanidad de acuerdo. El punto es que comunicarse siempre va a estar bien. Y aunque tal vez no siempre se tenga la inspiración, siempre, con cada post, se agrega unos granitos más al gran proyecto humano, la conquista del conocimiento. Tal vez explorando otros temas tengas un poco más de imaginación. A mí me da inspiración los programas científicos de televisión, como History Channel, o NatGeo, o Animal Planet. Saludos y que tu inspiración vuelva. Yo creo Erin, que la insatisfacción natural del ser humano es la genial razón por la cual también progresamos.

I used to write poetry, but then i started to travel and make friends and be happy...No longer can I write as well. I agree that angst feels necessary for expression, but I also think that feeling that may be amplified by angst is actually just an easy way out. Its easy to write about how miserable you are and how you dream of another life. Its easy to pour out your soul when you have no other outlets. But hey, now you've got yet another challenge. (like having to figure out complex conversations in spanish isn't enough). I have 15 mosquito bites on one hand. wow Oye!

I’ve been blogging since the 90’s and making a decade-long archive of “Sorry, here’s my Top 10 Reasons Why I Didn’t Blog” posts isn’t my goal — mainly because I’m not sorry, haha. My days are packed (like most people, I assume) and I don’t like to make my writing an afterthought. Add in the fact that I’m a slow writer to begin with — because I feel the need to hack away at every word — and you have the recipe for some slow-ass blogs. Thanks for the link in your post, Erin.
