Blog about Blog


I’ve decided it’s time to start a blog. While I realize that most people who are interested in blogging have already had one for 2 or 8 years, I’ve decided that it’s not too late and I’m ready to join the ranks of “people who wish other people would care about what they have to say” and/or the “please for the love of God someone give me some attentioners”. I like to think that I am neither of those but simply someone who needs another creative outlet but for all I know a shrink may say otherwise if asked. A shrink will not be asked.

I do not keep a journal because I have a problem thinking that my personal thoughts and feelings could be so accessible to anyone but myself so I choose to keep those tucked away in my head. I have a visual of my diary being found after I’m dead and completely misinterpreted by my family or friends as I float nearby in ghostly form screaming silent screams “noooo that’s not what I meaaaannntttt!” to no avail.

I think that says a lot about my personality. One, I don’t open up with my feelings to just anyone, and two, it is very, very important to me that I am correctly understood. I’m all about truth…the heart of the matter….the meat and potatoes of the world. I don’t intend to break tradition now and start spilling out my guts for the world to read (world = 7 or 8 people?) but I do think I would enjoy a new forum to state observations, frustrations, simple pleasures, personal epiphanies, etc. In fact I think I will title each entry under such headings. Frustration #1 or Simple Pleasure #4.

I would love it a few people WERE interested in reading and giving commentary on what I had to say otherwise its just masturbation via blogging. Bloggerbation. (I think I just came up with the name of my blog!) The more the merrier, I say. Let’s have a blorgie!

With that said, I’m going to go type up the entry that spurred this blog in the first place; “Frustration #1: Ignorant, Backwards, Self-Righteous Hicks”

Oh...and you're now on my blog roll...though that isn't saying much considering I'm a recent startup myself.

no lie...the word verification program to post a comment is having me type "semens."
