the reasons why

the number of blogs littering cyberspace are so excessive, it took me four tries to find a blog name i could use. even more frustrating, the blog names already in use were last updated....wait for it....at least three years ago.

apparently they have not had any thoughts since then. such is the ten second attention span of the internet and its users.

this introductory rant begs the question: why create another rambling introspective dialogue, shove it out into the technological world, and then wait for people to read it? i had vowed never to have one of these online journals (what ever happened to the purple fuzzy diary with the tiny heart shaped key lock?).

but i noticed an interesting trend. can anyone really have a life created from one joyful blog post after another? i sure did not have one. thus, i felt compelled to write about a life that is not being in the best of times. or even the worst of times. or in any sort of time at all.

but do not be mistaken. this blog is not an attack on those out there who express their joy and love and every other happy, sugar coated emotion. however, if you feel an emotional toothache after reading about the surreal life everyone else seems to be living , here is a tonic to all that saccharin.

i hope this is reality. and that is why this sounds familiar.
