First Time "Blogger"

This s a new experience for me. I have never really gotten into the obsession with reading about the views of the world through other people's eyes on the internet. However, through my lovely internship this summer, the amount of free time I end up having between projects and assignments has allowed me the opportunity to surf the web looking for something to entertain my hours with.

Now, I don't know how often people even look at these things or care about what they read...but the funniest part about this particular blog is that I was introduced to it through one of my closest friends, whose mom has a blog that I have read a couple of times. Strange connection, but at least it gives me something to do and somewhere to work on my writing (because internet blogging is clearly comparable to 20-page research papers for my "English Romanticism" course).

I also realize that this particular entry is going to be extremely boring to read...I am even getting bored writing it, as it has no useful or interesting information - but I did figure that I wouldn't just start writing about some random topic on my first go at it.

I hope this was at least moderately enjoyable for the 1-3 people who maybe experienced it, and when my day gets boring again tomorrow and the day after I will work a little harder at making this thing a little bit more interesting.

kg: You go, guy! We need some Intelligent Forms of Life in the Blogosphere. Plus, I need you to comment on today's post, in which I explore the "new reality" created by the Internet which you disparage so lovingly. If you need tips, I got 'em! This blogging thing is pretty addictive--so blog on!

See, you thought you'd have 1-3 comments, and you were exactly right! Watching the All-Star game right now--OMG, can you say "boring"? It was neat, though, to see all the old guys like Ripken and Murray and Robinson (both of 'em) out there before the game. If this sounds like a pro-Orioles post, it is--except for Frank Robinson, that is. Well, a pro-OLD Orioles post, anyway! Here's a bloggy friend for you: http://dcsportsplus.blogspot.com/ --his name is Hoagie, and he's a lot like you and he has a ton of opinions about sports, so you'll get along. Tell him Melissa B.'s friend Veggie Mom sent you! And one more blog friend you should look up: http://mrfairway.blogspot.com/ --Mr. Fairway is pretty boring 'cause he writes mostly about golf (do you play?), but you should pay him a visit sometime. I think he knows your friend CBeth pretty well. There--now you have some friends to add to your blog roll, when you figure out how to do that! Drop by to see me sometime!!
