To blog or not to blog...that is the question

So I love reading blogs. And I don't totally understand them. I'm amused by them and can spend hours reading and laughing about people I don't even know. And I often say to my self, "Self, why did you just waste so long reading this stuff? Go to bed, do laundry, for God's sake--EXERCISE." And yet I keep reading, all the time wondering, WHY? WHY would anyone do this? I don't know. But this I DO know...I have fun writing about my life because it's too good to make up. And if someone else can laugh at my expense, it makes me feel better for laughing at someone else's expense.

And so, while my husband of 6 years escapes into the world of his X-box (I think the X-box is a demon and also our generation's golf course for wasting precious family time but I'm confident we will hear about that a lot in the upcoming posts) and my darling daughters, ages 2 and 4 sleep away, I might as well do something I enjoy. No, not eating--that's not worked out well for me lately as I gained pregnancy weight instead of losing it (a concept I may explain in the future). And that made no sense. But if you are still reading at this point, I'm guessing you understand. ANYWAY, I figure I'll pass the evening time writing. I love it, one day I'm going to write a novel. But until then, the vast world of the World Wide Web can hear all about my life.

Please note, what you are about to witness is real...
