I love to blog. It's a great opportunity for me to rattle on to myself and practice writing. I know that's a skill that is sadly lacking in myself ever since I've left college. I have grand dreams of writing a book, so maybe...maybe...I will.
But I now have a routine to blogging that amuses me...First, I must think of an idea of what to say...this could take a minute or at times weeks. I realize it doesn't have to be earth shattering or even interesting...just write. But alas, I am wracked with the idea that I NEED a topic...silly me.
Second, I open my blog page and read all the blogs I have missed. Okay, this does take a while. For that I have to thank Chris...she is a writing fiend. The women can whip them out and they are funny or at time thought provoking. She is my idol! The more I look around, the more blogs that I like, so the time gets a bit longer until I do write. Of course it might be a way for me to stall...nah, that's just silly....
Third, I write. Hell, then re-write...then fix, add, check spelling. Ugh, this is hard. Okay...just do it. The voices in head are being annoying now, chanting in unison..."JUST DO IT!". So off I go...wait, I guess this is me writing... YEAH!

Everything I write is crap but I have fun most of the time writing it. I have to be in a good mood to write. I'm afraid of what I might say otherwise and to think that I might have something profound to say frightens me.
Sometimes I write something which I think is ironic and then some ESL goon from Denmark has to slam me for it. Ok that only happened once but it worked me up. (how do I know he was from Denmark? - Google Analytics!)
So I try to write things that are humorous and then the occasional random bullshit.
Keep on writin', I love reading 'em!
