Blinded off at No-Limit

Was I supposed to play before the blind, by defintion?


Situation: $100 NLHE at the Orleans. I have about T3000. 80000 in play. Two tables left. One table paid. 100 antes, blinds 300-600. I ended up throwing away every hand until my blind, when I posted a 100 blind, along with my ante. Is it possible that this was the right strategy? I won't go into the details about the hands, although as you might guess, I had no pairs, no aces and no decent kings during this stretch.
