My original first post. Sorry out of order.

I am going to do it.

So lately I have become obsessed with reading blogs.  It all started when my friend Justin moved to France with the promise of a blog so that his family and friends could feel like we were a part of his travels.  I created a blogger account and became a follower of Justin’s blog.  Each morning I would come in to work, log on to my computer and start my morning ritual: coffee; breakfast; talk to Jessica; check facebook; check blogger.  And each morning…NOTHING FROM JUSTIN.  O.k….there were a handful of blogs from Justin – but they just left me wanting more.

So more is what I went on the hunt for.  Kath Eats Real Foods; The Domestic Diva; Running and Then Blogging About It…I am a part of their lives!

I now want a blog.  I want to document this time in my life with my quirky thoughts; rants; pictures, etc.  I do have some concerns though, and I am hoping that you as my followers can maybe offer some suggestions on how to overcome these issues.  Here goes:

1 – I am private.  I don’t necessarily want to share my life and stories with everyone, however having a blog that only I look at seems dumb. 

2 – Sometimes I make up excuses on why I can’t hang out with someone.  So if I tell a little white lie to a friend…but then blog about my boring weekend at home…I am essentially screwed.  Please don’t tell me I shouldn’t lie either.  I have to.  I know of no other way.

3 – Drunk blogging.  Similar to drunk facebooking or drunk dialing.  I sometimes feel like I am amazing and creative and witty after I have a bottle of wine.  I am not. 

4 – Letting people down.  I am going to do an amazing job at this in the beginning.  My posts will be frequent.  They will be entertaining and witty and peppered with fun pictures of my family/and or random things that catch my eye.  It won’t last.  I am lazy.  You will all get your hopes up and I will eventually become a Justin.

That’s it for now.  This is my first official blog.  Please enjoy.
