Okay, so I’ve been trying to make an effort to post on Mondays and Thursdays but as you noticed, I missed yesterday’s deadline due to an unsalvageable miscommunication with my computer. Oh the joys of having a hobby that solely relies on the cooperation of a metallic piece of hardware that practically speaks another language. Instead of saying “Save” in computer-nese, I guess I pronounced “Delete” instead. I think my accent was off.
Anyways, this prompted me to write a post about problems that a fashion blogger faces. Granted, I’m still kind of new in the blogging world, and haven’t experienced all the twists and turns yet, but here are some thoughts.
1. “My pictures are deleted?! How on earth will my readers live a day without inspiration?!!”
2. “It’s been a whole ten minutes since my IG post and only 30 people have liked my picture?!!”
3. “Wait up! Sorry, I needed to stop and take a picture of my arm candy.”
4. “Shoot. I missed the prime posting time.”
5. “My photographer (a.k.a an unpaid family member) is sick? Eh, I’ll just give her a sweater and she’ll be fine. For the sake of the blog!”
6. “Um, excuse me pedestrian/car/dog/biker. You’re in the shot.”
7. “Oh no! I forgot to share my new blog post via [insert your choice of social media]”
8. “My ring was crooked. We need to take new pictures.”
9. “I’m sorry, did you say something? I was too busy planning out my blog schedule.”
10. “Have…to…fight…the…pain. Can’t…sleep…now. Gotta…have..a…new…post…”

Hope you had a good laugh. And hopefully over the weekend, my computer and I can work on our communication skills in time for Monday’s post.
Thanks for stopping by. Have a blessed weekend!
Oh, and if you have anything to add to the list, I would love to hear it! 🙂

Hilarious post Alex. The seventh one really happened to me last week but baby brain prevented me from taking any positive action (rolling eyes). My biggest problem is: “Oh my God, it is going to be sunny only in the morning. (to the hubby on a weekend) WE have to get up early!!!”
HAHA YES! I need to add that one in! I totally get what you mean! I keep having to either wake up really early or do pictures late in the evening where the lighting is good lol
Story of our lives 🙂
This post hits close to home. I could add a couple more: 1) my site just went down; how will I post tonight? 2) is this a free image?
I have had my site go down for several minutes at least 3 times for various reasons this past month. Also, I have heard from at least 2 fashion/entertainment who have been slammed with copyright infridgement claims (picture usage) upwards of $1k…
Oh wow! Those are good additions. And wow, I had no idea sites can just go down like that
Thanks! I went self hosted in March/April, it’s been challenging at times… It’s definitely an adjustment.
