Am I seriously starting a blog? March 31, 2008

My husband, my friends, my family….everyone is doing these blogs.  I have had some serious questions about these things.  They seem a little narcissistic.  Who would want to read about what I think or have to say?  I’m not that interesting.  I say if you want to know something just ask me.  Blogs also seem like alot of maintenance.   You have to keep up with your own, plus read everyone else’s.  An interesting phenomena of blogs is that people you don’t know become part of your “daily routine.”  Take for example this Carlos Whittaker guy; he’s like some kind of blog celebrity.  I was at lunch today with Jason (my husband) and our good friends Sam and Sarah (we were eating delicious chick-fil-a) and they were all talking about what was going on with Carlos’s blog-they check it all the time.  I mean, 4 people eating lunch in Noblesville, IN are chatting it up about a guy that we have never met who lives in Atlanta, GA.  That is kind of weird, don’t you think?  When I got home, I thought I really need to get a blog so I can contribute to some conversation.  Here’s the deal….I’m not going to blog about my days or what happened at my job or even how I feel about politics.  If you want to know that stuff, just ask….I am more of a talker than a writer.  What I am going to “blog” about is all my favorites!  Things I love to love!  I am what you might call brand loyal.  My husband calls me a marketers biggest dream.  I love a great product and once I love it, I buy it forever (or until something better comes along).  So, I hope you will enjoy some of my favorite things and maybe you can let me know what some of yours are!   So I guess yes, I am seriously starting a blog…….
