August 10? 2009

Everyone tells me I need to blog. "If you want to be a writer," they say, "you should really get on blogspot.com and post a blog. It would be a good way to get your voice out there." I asked one of my fellow un-technology savvy friends what the hell a blog is. What I've gathered is that it's a thing on the interweb where everyone in the world comes to share their random thoughts with the rest of the online world. I also got a bit more of an idea about it after seeing Julie & Julia the other night. In the movie, Julie (played by Amy Adams, beautiful actress extraordinaire) decides to cook her way through the Julia Childs French cooking cookbook and write a blog about it.
So anyway, after careful consideration, I have decided that it would not be the worst thing in the world for me to have one of these so called blogs. Maybe it will become an addiction. Maybe I will spend my days trekking back and forth from my house to downtown coffee shops with wi-fi, and I'll get super buff shoulders from carrying my laptop (lappy, as I call it) in my purse slung over my right shoulder. Maybe I'll stop hanging out with all my friends because I'll be too busy ranting at you guys. You never know. So, I'm giving this blog thing a try. If anyone has any tips on how to navigate this website, you should post a comment. And also post a comment if you have a blog that I should read. Let me know. Thanks for reading, everybody.
