Ok, it's like 1:30am and I am still wide awake, this stupid hunger/insomnia is driving me crazy...
I just ate THREE bananas...THREE...
wait a minute, I didn't post this to talk about bananas and my hunger!!
Why do I blab(blog)??
For some reason, I have made quite a bit of friends on and over the internet...
that plus families and friends that live long distances from us, makes emails very appealing...
except for ONE thing....
I am a lazy emailer...
if there was a job created for me to DELIEVER "EMAILS", I would be lazy...I would go POSTAL...or maybe Coastal, since I like the beach and stuff....
I am not sure how I got so lucky, but quite a bit of my friends really want to know how I am or how my family is doing.
and I am not one of those 3 sentences typers (nothing wrong with that, btw)....I am one of those I have to write a whole story from when I woke up to brush my teeth to how many kernels of corn I ate...to unlawful carnal knowledge...
and next thing you know, I'd written a book....to just ONE person....
then, I'd type things out again to the next, and the next....
then, I said to myself, heckit, I would just send out MASS emails...but I HATE doing that...
because sometimes, when I choose the contacts, I would even select the names of people that didn't ask about me, thinking that they'd be interested, and next thing I know, I'd get an email from them, "what?? huh?? who are you??"
LOL.....
I have been encouraged to blog quite a few times in the past few years....but never one to succumb to Facebook, Myspace, tweeter, I figured blogging is kind of like the same thing and ignored it for years...
although I do enjoy other people's blogs whenever they'd send me theirs...
I also have a tendency to let it all out....I am a no holds barred kinda dude....I mean, don't get me wrong, I AM a private person....but my emotions, as I write, comes out easily...
if I am PO'ed, you'd know it....if I am sad, you'd know it, if I am happy, you'd know it...if I am hungry, you'd know it!!
So, I questioned myself, do I want to blog, and talk about myself and do people really want to know that I am always hungry at 2am????
And do people really want to read my blab?? blab blab blab??
but then it konged on me...
it's better than mass emails....I simply include my blog at the end of my emails as my signature, and if people want to know what's going on, they can just click on my blab and read about it.
That takes care of the mass emails problem a bit...although it does seem like I am shamelessly advertizing my blogs....LOL
I really am not....I just am flattered that I have garnered enough interest from folks that truly care about me to want to know what's going on in my life....
and so, I am promoting my blog...
yes, that makes me indolent to the core....but it's easier for me and my friends...
don't get me wrong, I still will write personal emails....but if they want to know about me, I can most often than not, just point them to my blab...
but why TWO blogs...
this blog really is about my daily whimsical none sense. I didn't know that my life IS none sense until I started blogging....I am finding out more and more that I am not a normal person and that I am quite weird....
so, I needed a counter blog, one that includes my writings that reflects more of my journey in life and how I got here vs this blog here that just goes on and on and on about...nothing...
do I digress? OFTEN!
do I DIGEST!! well, after three bananas, I think I am digesting VERY well...but I am STILL hungry.......
you know that Simon and Car's Funk old song? "Stir crazy after all these ears??"
I am still hungry after all these blabs....
well, it's good to get this thought out....
