Most of you know me by my Facebook page "Sometime you've just gotta say, Fuck You!". I've gotta say, I never imagined having 25,000 likes for a page of random pics/quotes and general bullshitting! I basically became inspired to start a page through another page that I "liked" way back about a year ago called "You say tomato, I say Fuck You". Seemed pretty straight forward so I figured I'd try it too. It really becomes very addicting after a while. You notice the minutes going by much faster then the hours start disappearing!
Along the way I noticed more pages that had blogs associated with them. I'd go on and read them, some cute ones about being a stay at home mom & some funny ones about how they hate this show etc... all the while contemplating whether I wanted to try it for myself. It seemed like a whole lot of work to me. So I devised this list of why I've decided NOT to start a blog to convince myself not to blog.
#1 - Coming up with interesting subject matter. Really, what hasn't already been written? C'mon, seriously... not another "mommy blogger". Plus, in my opinion, I'm really not that funny or interesting enough to hold my own attention (see #4) let alone umpteen other peoples!
#2 - Commitment: I can't even commit myself long enough to finish ONE project. For example, where the walls meet the ceiling in my upstairs hallway aren't even painted correctly, at least 3 books I bought are 1/2 finished and I started crocheting a scarf that will probably never feel a winters chill. Finding time to finish all those should be excuse enough, right?
#3 - Guilt: I'd feel like a failure if I did this then didn't follow through. It's just too much pressure to handle since my 8 year old son, who I refer to as miniman, makes me feel guilty enough for not magically producing the OLDER brother he's always wanted!
#4 - OCD/ADD: No, technically I've not been clinically diagnosed with either one of these disorders..... and I'm not making any appointments anytime in the near future either! In other words I have a slight problem focusing because I'm always worried about making things "tidy" and "organized". This would be my BIGGEST reason for not having another child. I'd got batshitcrazy! One and done....
So I've decided to just stick to my Facebook page for now because it seems simple enough. But don't be surprised if you see a few "blogs" posted on there from time to time. ;)

Aren't you suppose to kiss a frog?

You'd think... but really I was dared by miniman to kiss it. He /she was actually cute! Did you take note that the pinkie was raised while holding it? Personally I think I resemble the "heat miser"... not my best look! LOL!!
