So You Have a Blog (aka about me)
March 23, 2006
And I have one too. I mean, how could I not get a blog? I got everything else online that everyone else had. Not only could I keep up with everyone, but I could keep up with myself. I am human and I like the “New and Improved!” No, I’m not a sheep. I don’t buy into everything. I hate Pop music and most TV shows. I don’t have an IPOD and I don’t shop at Old Navy or The Gap. I have no idea What’s cool or uncool these days. I really don’t care.
But I did change from Yahoo! to Gmail. I keep up on the latest DJ mix and try to catch DJ Tiesto’s mixes on http://www.di.fm/ any time I can manage it. I watch The Sopranos and The Daily Show regularly. I burn my music to CD to play in my CD player because it’s cheaper and I shop at Ross for the styles of last year. I know what’s cool for me and I know what can make my life easier.
I never started a blog before because I had little I wanted to share about my life on the Internet. I didn’t have anything I needed to keep track of or admire a change by looking back on. I was just living my life, going to my job and working in a relationship…and no matter how good, they are a lot of work!
But like an old Grandmother on a Sunday afternoon after church, I knit and crochet. But this twenty something lady does not know how to read patterns…so I just make shit up. And by making shit up, I mean I start projects and hardly ever finish them and go on to something else because they either don’t work out like I planned or I think of something better. When I do finish something I just move on to the next thing. I need to keep track of everything I make or try so I stop waisting good Alpaca and Silk yarn. I need to work on my skills so I can make more shapes then squares or rectangles.
So there it is. I’m starting a (Oh no not another craft site) blog. Does this make me a sheep or just someone who uses sheep hair to make clothing and talks about it? Either way I sound like I’m off my Grandmother’s rocking chair.
