Welcome to my home! (I say in the voice of the homless man sleeping in the London laundrymat who let Cynthia in to retrieve a dryer full of forgotten clothes.)
I have really been slacking on the writing lately, which I blame on Facebook and Twitter. My thoughts are limited to status updates, or worse to 140 character, comically abbreviated blips. I have TinyURL’d my brain. Alas, all those lost words have piled up to make me a bit mental. I’m talking to myself way more than normal (which is a LOT) and even had a telephatic conversation with a wide-eyed and definitely English-speaking miniature greyhound in a backpack. Time to write again.
I’m starting fresh, leaving behind the LiveJournal that felt super-dated and cost $20/year. This is recession blogging, baby. It's not easy to think of a blogspot address that's not taken, though. I went through about 50, finally getting lucky with one of my favorite Jimmy Buffett song titles. Thanks again, sir.
What am I going to do with this blog? I’d love to have a theme – travel, money, eating… but they’ve all been done. I’m not qualified to be a mommyblogger and my brain wilts long before I can hack it with the smartyasses at Jezebel. So this is my tiny corner, my phone booth from the train station in Adventures in Babysitting. Welcome to my home.

ReplyDeleteOMG! If I had a dime...those crazy mini-greyhounds and their Jansports.
(First comment...Hollah!)
Yeah I love blogspot. Now the question is, what did the mini-greyhound say back to you? Perhaps mini-greyhounds have more to say then we think. Hmm...I think you have a topic for another blog entry....
