I have two very well spoken and creative friends who have been blogging for a while. They always tell me that I should get in on the game but something always stops me..insert rationalization of choice here. But sitting here tonight in a Valium haze, I figured "Why not"? I also wondered why I saw the Care Bears walking by but that is another story.
I am soon to be 44 and have yet again not acheived the same goals that I set for myself every year. You know the ones that start with..by my next birthday I will lose weight, get out of debt, get laid, etc. Anyway, they never seem to happen because of one thing or another.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining ( well maybe a little). I am a very lucky person. I come from a very close, very functional family. I have great friends who I have known since Jesus was in second grade, and fabulous nieces and nephews who adore me because I encourage fart jokes and ask them to worship Mel Brooks as a god.
I sit reading my friends blogs and realize that it really is a great way to connect with other people and talk about all types of stuff, both funny and sometimes painful. I think that is the reason why I finally decided to start my own page, because maybe if I talk about goals, I might actually achieve some.
By the way, if I do say something that you feel would qualify as a rationalization, feel free to throw the Bullshit flag!!!

Oh, and for the record. That whole blogging about goals makes you acheive them? Not so much But it's fun none the less. :)~

Goals are good, writing about them is good too; blogging making you actually DO something? Yeah, not so much. But its fun!!
