Starting a Blog

Dear Blog,

I decided to start you today to keep track of my life and to add another activity to my somewhat inactive post-graduate life.  I think the title of this post is pretty self-explanatory.

I decided to write my blog in public for a few reasons, mainly, so that I have a record of my blogs that I could share with others if they choose to participate.  I suppose I could always start Tweeting to keep my peeps updated, but I've never been fond of the concept.  I think that it can easily get out of hand -tweeting every little moment of my life for others to see, trying to come up with clever tweets to get good feedback from my friends... easily a road towards an obsessive and (as far as I've witnessed) non-worthwhile pursuit.  I've already been sucked in by facebook - I don't need twitter taking time away from my life too.

Anyways, hopefully I'll cover a wide range of topics in my blogs.  I'm flirting with the idea of NOT telling any of my friends about it and just letting my posts float through cyber space to see what followers I pick up - if any haha.  After all, I'm sure that the majority of people have more productive ways to waste their time then following the posts of a somewhat neurotic, confused, naive college grad who is trying to figure out what the hell to do with his life.  But for those of you who will choose to follow, I can only hope that my posts will keep you entertained... this could be a lot easier if I was a sexy teenage girl.


Anywho, I think that's it for my first blog post.  I'll keep posting as life comes to me.  For now though, there's a fat ass baked chicken waiting for me in my oven, screaming out my name.


Peace,
Bide
