Kids these days with their new fangled blogs...

I am not one to jump on the bandwagon (yes, I know, everyone says that), but I feel so old and out of the loop with all this Facebook, Myspace, and IM type stuff that I apparently think posting to a blog will make me feel young and technologically connected. Who knew I was insecure about my technology abilities? I've read my sister's and sister in law's blogs, as well as a few friends', and they've surprisingly grown on me. Plus, I am sick of typing emails to everyone letting them know what I've been up to, so this should actually save me a lot of time! Yes, it is truly all about me, not you. As a bonus, perhaps this whole blog phenomenon will inspire me to do fun, exciting things so I can entertain people since it is possible no one wants to read about my typical activities of painting my cats' nails. And yes, Mom, before you cry, I am kidding. I only have one cat.

I am fairly certain this blog adventure will be akin to the approximately 900 times in my life I've recommitted to writing in a journal: entries for a few days, then nothing for months or years except sheer embarrassment when I look back at what I wrote.

I just looked at the settings and evidently there is an option for "adult content" in a blog. Are you kidding me? What is wrong with people these days? Can we not just write things about our lives without "XXX" posted everywhere? Get a grip. So let me see if I can take a few words to summarize what my life is like right now:

1. I work
2. I work out
3. I feel guilty that I don't work out enough
4. I try to spend some time in the outdoors at least once a week. Right now that seems to be primarily skiing.
5. I don't write adult content in blogs

I think this is sufficient for a first blog out of the gate.
