"Naomi, we need to talk."
"...Jesus? Is that you?"
"No, it's me. Your blog."
"Oh. Heeeey, Blog. I was totally just going to click over to you."
"Were you, Naomi? Were you really?"
"Well...yeah, I mean...I was going to comment on someone else's blog. That's pretty much the same thing, right? You use the same login and everything."
"Don't bullshit me."
"Sorry."
"It's been a while."
"Yeah, I've been pretty busy. School, you know."
"You were too busy going to school for writing to write in your blog?"
"Okay, well, I can see where you would think that's a lame excuse, but I was doing this big paper, and it was a group project, so I was writing a lot of emails, and then I got sick...you know, I wrote about all of this on Twitter."
"Don't talk about that website around me! You know how I feel about microblogging!"
"Okay, sorry! Sheesh. I guess now isn't the best time to mention I've been thinking about getting a Tumblr account."
"What?!"
"Forget I said anything. Look, blog, I'm sorry I've been neglecting you. I really am. I miss writing for fun. I miss posting pictures on you of cool things that I do. I even miss pretending I hate myself for shamelessly promoting you on Twi- on other websites. The thing is, you're a habit. I fell out of writing, and I want to fall back in. I miss you Blog, I really do."
"I miss you too, Naomi. I want us to be close again."
"Me too.
"Hey, Blog?"
"Yes, Naomi?"
"Are you picturing me wearing a trenchcoat and holding a boombox playing Peter Gabriel above my head?"
"Of course."
"I love you, Blog."
"I love you too, Naomi."
