2009

I must say, I'm not very good at things like this. Blogs make me nervous.

"Why?", you may find yourself curiously asking. Because they imply such demanding responsibility, that's why.

"Ah, I see, he does have a pretty good point. Plus, if he starts writing a blog, that means he has to keep writing in it. Yeah, I understand this guy," you might think to yourself.

I mean, if I start writing in a blog, that means that I have to keep writing in it. Can you, the reader (who may very well turn out to be just me anyway), understand that?

"Yeah, I do understand that. In fact, I already thought that same thing earlier in my reading of this blog," you are probably saying, possibly even aloud.

If I don't, then I begin to let down all of my zero fans, which, don't worry, I love each and every one of you.

"Good," I bet you thought at the reading of that last comment.

Not only that though, I just don't seem to know what exactly to blog about, nor do I know how to go about blogging about that mysterious topic that I am currently unaware of. Should I blog about the world news? Should I blog about funny stories I read online? Should I blog about my friends and family? Next, should I blog using a conversational style? Should I lay everything out like a newspaper?

"Those were several questions you just asked!" you just shouted at the computer. Yes, yes they were, and that's the problem.

"Hey, why is this guy putting so many words in my mouth? I'm positive that I didn't think all of the things he thinks that I'm thinking and 'slash' or saying aloud and 'slash' or to myself!" you're undoubtedly angrily contemplating right now.

Don't worry loyal reader, that is completely okay that you are angry. I know that you may not have thought or said those things, that's why I made sure to use words like "probably" or "might" or even "may". I know that towards the end I began being a little more confident in my description of your actions "slash" thoughts, but that just comes with the blog, get used to it.

"Pff, no way, you can't tell me what to do!" you just said. Yes I can, and I will continue to do so. If you still believe that it is not necessarily within my rights to do this...I don't think I want to stumble into a legal debate at this point, so uh.........Happy New Year!

"Aw, thanks for wishing me that happy new year. I really appreciate the fact that you want my new year to be happy," you must be pushing through your immense appreciative smile. Yes, it is true, I do, indeed, want your new year to be happy. I can only hope that I can keep this up. What's that word that I want to say that describes when someone wants to do something with the new year?

"Resolution," you just helpfully whispered in my ear as to avoid embarrassing me in front of my fans who are also you. Thanks, and yes, it will be my new year's resolution to keep up with this blog. Let's hope that this relationship between my blog and I will last.

"Don't you care about the relationship between you and I?" you are wondering.

Yes.

I'm not wearing boots right now, in fact I'm just wearing socks, which, again, as we all know, are not boots. Goodnight!

  1. The commitment makes me nervous too. I've just started my own blog, so we'll see how I do with that.
