Another day... a new blog.


So It's Friday morning. I'm at work. I'm thinking about getting started actually working soon. I can hardly believe I'm starting a new blog. I've been blogging for about 8 years now. I started when I was 20 with the ever so glorious livejournal.com which quickly blew up in my face. Far too many people in my overly dramatic group of friends discovered my blog and it all turned into drama, drama, drama. All coming to a head after my bastardy boyfriend cheated on me in the winter of 2001. When I found out that he'd been seeing both me and another girl and lying to us both about it I finally broke things off with him for good. Apparently this made me the bad guy and shortly after my livejournal account was hacked and used to post mean things about my Friends and my self all over the place. I pretty much stopped my blogging for quite a while after that. I've started some blog since but I haven't really had the dedication them that I had before the asshole X. But this was a long time ago now and I think maybe it's time to get back into it.
I tired to blog on myspace. They do have a section for such things but to be honest it sucks ass. The whole blog format is garbage and nothing ever works right and half the time the whole system is so bogged down your blog wont even post or it will post the same blog 6 or 7 times because it keeps telling you it's not working but really it is. Then I tried to go back to blogging on livejournal but it's true what they say that you can't go home. The community there just isn't the same anymore. Too many 12 year olds there blogging about the Jonas brothers for my taste. I guess what brought me here to this blog site was my friend Peter. He is a dedicated blogger in fact he's even working on a book. Where does he find the time I do not know. Anyway, I was reading his blog this morning and I decided that I wanted to comment on it and I actually had to log into Google to do that and while updated my blogger comment profile it asked me if I wanted to start a blog of my own and I found myself saying yes, yes I do.
So that pretty much bring us up to date. I started the new blog this morning and so far I have to say I kind of love it. It does a little auto save here every few seconds so I don't have to worry about accidentally loosing my rant and it's got spell check and pictures and all kinds of goodies all built in just for me. I'm pretty pleased. Maybe here in a little bit I'll blog about some more current events in my life and y'all can tell me what you think. Until then. Yeah for blogs!

"Too many 12 year olds there blogging about the Jonas brothers for my taste"
LOL! That is the funniest line to me!
I'm glad that I continue to be a bad influence to you . . .
On you?
