blogging and my bum...

on the face of it you wouldn't think the two are related... but they are, and while I'm not really blogging there is a point to this... I'm just pretending I'm blogging because I wanted to be like everyone else ... I did burn my bum though but more on that later

Blogging is the "in" thing at the moment, I guess it has been for a while now and while I have some "blogs" setup I never actually use them, I don't have the time I guess but most of all I suspect I lack the inspiration I never kept a journal, I've never had a diary.. to me a blog is similar, just a more public version of ones life which is strange to me, I guess I'm more protective of my personal life and thoughts... blogging just isn't a me thing, but all power to ppl that do because it keeps me entertained for a few hours a week

Most of the blogs I read on a regular basis are business related, they keep me up to date with the comings and goings of my favourite products or work related services... other blogs I read are ones that belong to friends, both in real life and my online life and they are really awesome as it keeps me up to date with their goings on and they often challenge my thoughts and beliefs, something which I believe is really important... also important (for me at least) is RSS Feeds... thank the gods for RSS feeds, I bow to their greatness because if it wasn't for them there is no way I could make it around all the individual websites

I think it's cool that ppl I don't know blog their lives, the up's and down's the in's and out's etc it's just I really believe that one day some of the blogs that I've randomly stumbled across are going to leap up and bite some bums due to the content they have posted... wow talk about being incredibly personal.. heck I don't even know them yet their postings make me squirm, blush or just want to get the hell out of their webspace "...My wife is a *****...", "...I'm glad I'm cheating on my husband...", "...Amy [that ***** from 2C] is a *** bag...." , "...Metro is such a *** I spat in his mocha before giving it to him..." oh brother

Thankfully not all blogs are intense and filled with more tribulations than triumphs, some of the ones I've stumbled upon are so informative, ppl sharing their lives, their experiences and their knowledge... it's like an online documentary, a snapshot of how and where ppl live... it's facinating and I love it. Next to reading weird news, reading random blogs is the best way to kick back, have a laugh and relax

If I had a blog, my entries would be mind numbingly boring... I went to work (down the hallway), I got a coffee (back up the hallway), I did some work (back down the hallway), I poked fun at Andy (no hallway involved, just the next room), I got more coffee (back up the hallway), I did more work (back down the hallway) , I left work (back up the hallway) we had dinner (just off the hallway), I went back to work (down the hallway), I left work for the day (back up the hallway)... my day.. ho hum... not the least bit exciting to anyone else but me because I love my days, I love my job, I love where work, how I work and who I work with but it's not exactly thrilling now is it but other day something happend to me that if I had a blog I would definitely have posted, thankfully I don't blog so you're all spared the details it wouldn't have been exciting or thrilling anyways, simply because it wasn't either, but it would certainaly have broken the mundane and I did learn something from it... and just in case you too have "borrowed" your cats electric blanket to place on your office chair... always, always remember to take your zippo lighter out of the bum pocket of your jeans before you settle in for a 3 hour non stop block of work... trust me on this... and your bum with thank me for it also

You can easily spot my chair in the photo of my office that I posted at our forum....
... and near the base of my chair you can see a speech bubble that says "cable for bum warmer"...

My closing thought....
ppl with no lives, like myself, shouldn't be allowed to blog if the highlight of their life is a burnt bottom...
