Blogging & Me

I’m going to be honest, I’m terrible at this blogging thing.  I tell myself I’m going to keep up with it and then I go weeks without saying anything at all.

It’s not because I don’t have anything to say. I have lots of things to say; however, I don’t think everything I think needs to be immortalized on a platform for people to read over and over again. Much of it is the equivalent of a Facebook post about what I had for breakfast, only relevant to a small number of people for an incredibly short period of time.  Therefore, I don’t think a blog is the best idea for me. Social media, by nature of its transience, is more the kind of connection I tend to make. Pithy things come to me. I share them. I forget them almost immediately.

Welcome to having the memory of a goldfish.

I do keep a fairly regular journal. It’s full of the random head drivel I come up with on a regular basis. Some of it even make it out of there and onto the page for other people to read.

The point of this post: I’m not going to apologize for not blogging regularly anymore. I know I don’t blog regularly. Anyone who’s been around long enough to realize I don’t blog regularly already knows it. New people, if they stick around, will get it soon enough. Since it is reality, gonna stop wasting energy apologizing for it.
