Oh, but I&#8217;ll die if I drink water. Or breathe. See, one rule of this game is everyone dies.</p>
<p>The article didn&#8217;t present any balance. Truth is, blogging has brought so many really great people and experiences into my life that it&#8217;s worth the sacrifices I&#8217;ve made.</p>
<p>That said, I&#8217;m glad I didn&#8217;t force myself to blog from Amsterdam. What did I do instead? Cleaned out my email. Almost got back onto the <a href="http://www.davidco.com/">David Allen plan</a>.</p>
