So, all along I have been against the blog thing. Too trendy. I really liked the idea at first. Then I thought of all the pretentious and annoying people that would be out there blogging away for attention. Not for me. Now, of course, everyone blogs. It's no longer just for the smart, little bit fringe, laptop bearing bloggers in the coffee shops. No, it has now been overtaken by homeschoolers, grandparents, and just about anyone you can think up. Which only makes me more apprehensive. (Kind of like how you know something is going out of style when you see your friend's mom wearing it) Of course, I have always had trouble writing in a journal because it seemed crazy to be talking to a book that no one was really going to read except for me, and I would just be disgusted at myself, years down the road, when I found it in a box under my bed anyway. So, at least a blog has an audience, of sorts. "Oh, vast internet, full of potential adoring fans, read my words of wisdom!" Then again, if I don't want to read my own journal, what makes me think anyone else would want to. Still, here I am. Blogging. And it feels kind of nice.
Thank goodness this thing has spell check.
