CAMEL TO FELIX: MORE GRUEL! What do you call the feeling when your favorite blogger is idle for a while?

Felix Salmon hasn't posted a new essay in weeks. Errr, a week. So I exaggerate, but: What am I to do, read actual print media? A corporate website? Perhaps I'll dash off an e-mail to the polymath and urge him to scribble some new stuff.

Meanwhile I guess I could invent a word for the aforementioned feeling, a TOBAW (There Oughta Be a Word) to use my own, freshly-minted sniglet-replacement.

So the malaise that hits when your favorite blogger is slow on the post is called...

The blahgs.

As in, "When Felix Salmon doesn't post for a week, I get the blahgs."

Perhaps this could be used a more general purpose term for blog-related ennui. Dunno.
