So the other day my husband mentioned to me that I should get back to blogging. That I should blog more about my experiences as a mommy. I definitely miss blogging, so why not do it?
Well... I hate doing things that are trendy. Mommy blogs are EVERYWHERE. They all have their cute backgrounds and links and contests, etc. Oh, and I love reading them. I often read other mommy's blogs and think about what I would write about the same topic. It's not that I don't like mommy blogs, it's that I don't like doing things that are trendy. I've been blogging since 2001 - began shortly before 9/11. No, you may not read the twisted blogs of my early-mid-late 20s. So there's this part of me that's annoyingly hipster-like (another word I eschew) that's all, "I was doing this before it was cool!" like my love of Oasis, cloth bags, or organic foods. I fell away from blogging when I was in my early 30s, too busy with work, life, marriage, etc. I started writing about my experiences when Alissa was an infant, but sleep deprivation and such made this page sit here in perpetual lost-blogdom. Would Alissa be eight months in the internet world forever?
No, my husband is right. I need to return to blogging. I enjoy my tweets and FB posts and all, but sometimes, I really have more to say about the world.
I really have no specific slant or goal of this blog. If you read it, and enjoy it, that's great. If you read it, and hate it, that's great too. Thanks for reading.
