Because it's My Blog

Here's a rant.

Oh, Facebook.

I love that you help me keep in touch with people, especially ones that Ihaven't seen in person in years. I love that you make it so easy. I love that I can chat with family that live out of state, and show them what The Prince has been up to.

I dislike how you can so easily turn me into a cyber stalker. It's so simple to keep clicking and checking up on people. That link that went around to tell people who has been looking at your pictures? That scared me pretty good. I dislike how people use you to tell their friends important news (I have done this myself, and while I can't really find a great way around it for big announcements, I still am uncomfortable with it). I dislike how somedays I have to check you umpteen times a day.

Arg. Somedays I think about giving up technology, or doing a fast or something, but then I get the shakes and hyperventilate. I'll stay plugged in for now.

What's Blogging all About?

I've hesitated to start a blog because I'm a little nervous to put everything out for all to see. I used to make up fabulous blog entries in my head, and file them away for someday.

Now that 'someday' is here, not only can I not remember those fabulous entries, I'm just not sure what to write about. I follow a few blogs that are eloquent, witty, amusing, and I'm not sure I can commit to that. I'm also not sure that I can commit to perfection in grammar and spelling. Should I do daily journal entries? Share scripture I'm reading? Funny things The Prince does, or reasons I love my hubby? Really take a chance and tell you how I truly feel?

I suppose the answer is...yes. My blog shall be a combination of all these things. Hopefully some eloquent, witty, amusing entries surface.

On another note, The Prince got ear infections (double, again, boo) a few nights after the first Serious Night of the new sleeping plan. And I'm pretty sure I see his top two teeth coming in. So, for now, I'm concentrating on helping him sleep. I consider that a pretty special job. I'll continue dreaming (hah!) of a night when I, too, can sleep.
