Really, I can't blog. I feel like it requires a certain quality that I just don't possess. I need a story...something to talk about. I'm barely even imaginative enough to make something up. I need a story that seems to clash with my personality (boring); something exciting that elicits gasps and an "oh my" after every sentence. Like spending time in prison; or walking away unscathed from a horrible run in with a huge semi. I could make it content rich; drown out the mundane text with exciting pictures of my daily life. You know, blurry closeups and shots of my crazy cat. How about posting links to all the crazy places on the web with pointless reviews of each location that no one will bother to read since they would rather click on the link and find out for themselves.

Everyone seems to have direction...it can't be that hard to find, right? How about brain storming:

I could blog about...
  • My cat
  • My fiancée's dog
  • Cooking
  • Working a boring IT job
  • Books
  • Gadgets that I can't afford
  • Filming my cat attacking my fiancée's dog with my new $500 camera while searching through a Citrix manual to fix a problem for a user at work who also has questions regarding the proper length of time to proof their enriched white bread dough.
That last one might be a bit too much. In the end there is one other quality with other bloggers possess which I seriously lack: the ability to write multiple times a day, at length, about subjects that interest them in such a way that other people will find interesting as well. Of course, even though I may not be blogger material, I think I'll make a few attempts. Hopefully at some point I'll being to find something worthwhile to write about.

Even a once-in-a-while blog is a good thing. Forget multiple times per day, or even once-a-day! I'd much rather read something from the heart once-in-a-while.

Anyway, people like us... heck... we have a LIFE... I think... hmmm...
