So as I emailed my old college roommate this:
"If I were to start blogging as so many people do these days, what would I blog about? Isn't blogging just a more savvy term for keeping a diary? I was never good at those so how consistent would I be about blogging? Now I do like updating my FB status or tweeting so one could say that I do like sharing information or thoughts...but how is blogging different than just being a public diary? Plus is this going to be a when I'm bored, lonely, procrastinate GMAT studying type of thing? Because work isn't going to be slow forever & the snow will melt and then I will have this half assed, never finished blog sitting in cyber space. Unless because I am an I-Phone user that I can use this blog, when laying out...stuck in traffic on the way to golf...at the airport waiting for a flight, or all those moments that you can't consider true "down time" but really don't have much else to do but sit & "yank it". lol
I don't like starting something I can't finish so I really want to put some thought into taking this on, although this isn't a 5k or child rearing, it is just a blog. Plus I think like the premise of Julie & Julia, it may inspire me to do new things or try different things in order to have blog worthy material. Plus how nice would it be to have a piece of your life or past to read about at a future date? Also although tweeting is nice, it is limited. This would give me unlimited space to ramble on & on...(right because that's what the world needs)..."
She convinced me that I should go ahead and start a blog. It would be something cool to do and her dad has kept a journal for years and similaily blogging will not only be a keep sake, but therapeutic...so here we are, day one. Dedicated to Katie Festa.
