Having Trouble Coming Up with Blog Content!

How do people blog everyday, let alone a couple of times a day?!? I want to blog more but the trouble is coming up with content that someone might be interested in.

Here I am a news junkie, blog junkie, pop culture junkie and all I can think to blog about is the hospital trip this household made on Saturday. My cousin is currently living with Rich and I and she's allergic to shrimp. She ate something on the weekend (while working a banquet) that had been on the same platter as shrimp and she immediately broke out in hives. She came home to get changed and let us know she was going to the hospital. She wouldn't let us drive her, so she drove herself while in anaphylactic shock, little did she know the intensity of this reaction. By the time she got to the emergency parking lot she could barely walk or breathe. Thank goodness a paramedic was heading out to the parking lot while she was coming in.

She called us once she was all checked in, hooked up and in need of some company; so we hightailed it over to the hospital with some mags, slippers, and other things we could think of that might make a hospital visit more tolerable. Because it was such a bad reaction she was immediately admitted so we made it through the experience in record time. She went in at 10 and was out of there by 12:30...

In Nina's defense she thought she was just having a regular reaction; she didn't realize how bad her allergy had become. So now she is a proud owner of an epi-pen and Rich and I will never let another friend, family member, child living with us drive themselves to a hospital ever again!

Start with keywords. Figure out what type of content you want to have define your blog. Then find sources of information on that content. Then, make sure you keep abreast of it enough that you have something interesting to say about it every day...

...hell, it can be a way to force yourself to keep abreast of things you're often lazy and ignore.
