I figure if my first blog entry is all about the reasons I should not start a blog, things can only look up, right? So even if my blog-pursuit is destined to fail, at least I'm recognizing it in the beginning. Also, I'm a fairly big fan of irony. I wouldn't say that I'm a huge fan, but enough of one to start off a blog in this manner. Plus, I really love lists. So here it goes...
1. I keep a journal, and anytime I go back and read previous entries I always feel like such a goob. It's as though today-me is embarrassed of yesterday-me. Inevitably, today-me will eventually become yesterday-me, and I'm just trying to look out for tomorrow-me.
2. It gives me one more reason to procrastinate. Although I pride myself in being a prime time player, I don't need any more fuel for that fire.
3. I've always associated blogs with emo teenagers. I'm not in a crappy band (or a good one, for that matter), I don't wear tight vintage tees, and I haven't been into Dashboard Confessional in a long time.
4. I've come to realize that I think I'm funnier than anyone else things I am. I'm pretty sure that having a blog will reaffirm this awareness. Maybe that's a good thing though.
5. I'm not a very creative writer. I'm hiding behind my math degree on this one.
6. It's a strange way of others getting to know me while I don't get to know them. Something about this seems uncomfortable, eerie, and a little vulnerable.
Alas! I shall blog.
