Blog Virginity

This is my first blog post ever!!

It's got to be some sort of statistic that everyone has either a Facebook or a Twitter account (or like me, both).  I was so excited when I got my Facebook, that my first activities couldn't start soon enough-the photo albums, status updates, relationship status...oh, the excitement! I had my Twitter account for months before I ever tweeted a word, mainly because I couldn't figure out what in the world to do, but I did have those friends that had anxiety about their first post. "What do I have to say that is worthy of my first ever tweet?" What? I couldn't understand. The idea of delaying it because they weren't sure if it was worthy was something I just couldn't wrap my mind around. Just say what you want!


Fast forward to me, currently sitting on the couch at my parents' house, watching the movie Glory (great history movie by the way) and editing my layout for what must be the 14th time in the weeks since my blog was activated. Wait...weeks since my blog has been activated? That's right. I've been putting off my first post because I couldn't figure out what was worthy enough! OH. MY. GOSH. Who am I? I love to talk- about every thing, about nothing. This whole idea started as a simple journaling outlet, inspired by www.projectbabyblog.com. How did this happen?

My only real thoughts right now are how soon can I Skype with Lacey, what can I buy on Etsy today, how weirdly wonderful True Blood is, and how many boards I l-o-v-e/need to make on Pinterest. That's first blog worthy, right?

Well, I guess that's it; I've written it- my first post! I realize it has absolutely no direction, no lessons learned, no insight, no nothing! But I've finally put pen to paper, figuratively of course. This post was perfectly pointless, but the anxiety has passed, and the door is now open for what's to come...
