So I sat down this weekend and decided to move my previous blog to my current (but not updated) blog space. I realized a few things (which doesn't include the extreme difficulties of the transfer that took three hours of a wasted weekend). First I was completely amazed on how long MySpace held on. I mean, back in the 2005’s MySpace was really really awesome. Facebook was just, like, huh. Whatever. But what I didn’t realize was the fact I kept updating my MySpace until the middle of 2008. I had no idea it held on that long. Cause I mean, Facebook is so cool now.
The second fact... well more of a realization, was how interesting my life was. I mean, I totally blogged weekly, and sometimes daily. I mean, sure, when I was traveling I would blog. But I would even blog frequently just about my mundane life. Well, I say mundane, but I had tons of followers (like 20) and lots of people would post comments on my blog (like several). How has my life become so boring? Is if because I spend more time working out, showering, and sleeping? Is it because I’d rather sit in front of the TV brain dead after work? Is it because I have to walk a dog now?
Probably all of those.
But as I’m skimming those blog entries I’m thinking (other then why people would read the post), self, I could have summed that entire blog up in one Facebook status. Why did I spend ten minutes writing that blog. Writing the blog on a computer for that matter; in lieu of spending five seconds at the bar - followed by awesome comments from hundreds of my friends that I didn’t know I had until Facebook solidified our friendships.
Wow. Facebook killed the boring, everyday blogger. That in itself is boring. Well, kinda. I also realized that I have a routine now, so I have more time. But that time is spent being boring. So why not spice it up with more ten minute blogs?
