I've finally caved in.
I've dabbled with blogging before through facebook notes that were more than just the "25 things about me" lists, but at some point along the way, I felt I needed a place to post my own thoughts where anyone can say anything without feeling like their familiarity with me would be an imposition.
My friends blog all the time and I've enjoyed reading them when I have the free time, however there are times when a lot of my friends note a seemingly minor mishap of their day and then proceed to turn it into a verbal spectacle.
Take this excerpt:
"...I like my coffee half-and-half and iced. What I got was black and hot. asjfsdfafhawnfsf WTF BARISTA MAN?!?!?! It just got me soo frustrated and I just took the coffee. I got soo mad, so I rushed to my blackberry and typed this otu (sic). Could you believe that guy?"
No...just no. I'd refuse to read that. I'd hate to make anyone else read that either.
Perhaps that's the true purpose behind blogging: to be free to vent to the entire world about your issues with the world around you, but frankly, its not where I'd like to steer this ship.
If it should ever come down to the point where I'm blogging about my messed-up coffee order, please feel free to comment on that particular post. That's when I'll know to leave the computer behind and disconnect myself for a little while. But otherwise, I wish you all happy bloggings.
Yours,
NL
