I have joined the blogging bandwagon. I honestly have thought long and hard about this because I really, truly didn't know what to say. I read seriously about 50 blogs and love every single one of them. It seems to me the authors are always so witty, intelligent, well-spoken, and well-informed. I lead a pretty normal, suburban life... What on earth would I contribute? And my friends all keep saying you need to blog... but I have procrastinated because I think I am a bit boring. Seriously... my best friends have blogs and sometimes I literally laugh out loud (by myself... in my office) at the things they write. They're hilarious, insightful, and so entertaining. I am the one who laughs at others not makes other laugh. I mean I make my husband laugh but largely because I am ridiculous or dramatic and he has no choice but to laugh it off or shake his head.
But I got to thinking about it and I really want to catalog my thoughts. Look back one day at how I was thinking and feeling during a time in my life. You know it's like Amy Adams in "Julie & Julia" when she thinks absolutely no one will read her ramblings and gets over joyed at her firts comment... but she really isn't just writing it for others. She's writing for herself and to just try it. So, with her in mind (and since I really like that movie) I am just going to try it. But be warned my audience of 1 (ok maybe 2 counting my loyal mother) this blog may be boring sometimes, may be a little sad or pathetic at my attempts to be funny. But I can guarantee it will be 100% me and I will try to hold nothing back!
I'm your first comment! (Are you excited?!?!) So glad you jumped on the blogging bandwaggon. And if nothing else, it will be something to show HE-nut when he's older that will probably embarrass him horribly!
