What should I blog about today? That is the question. Its a good question, and the answer is...I just don't know. So I think I will blog about having nothing to blog about. Of course I can always fall back on some cute story anecdote involving one or more of my five sons, but that would make me feel like I was desperate for something to write about. I am sure that in the future I will use one or more of these kid stories to blog, but I want it to be because I want to tell that story, not because I have nothing better to talk about.
I have this goal of blogging every other day in order to have a kind of consistency with my blog. I don't imagine it would matter very much to people if I were to blog less often, since there are only a few people who check this blog anyhow, and I seriously doubt they check it every day, let alone every other day. I just have that every other day goal. I think if I just blog when I feel like it, I will end up going weeks or months, and then people will stop checking my blog and what's the point of having one after that?
I think I have blogger's block. Kind of like writer's block, and yet...not. I can blog about anything, or nothing (as is evidenced by this post). I have many opinions, and I can actually think about many things to write about...but usually I like for one topic to leap off of the page in my head and say BLOG ABOUT ME! That just hasn't happened today, so I am blogging about this instead.
Maybe I should take this opportunity to make a list about potential things to blog about in the future...then I can always come back to this blog for ideas the next time I get stuck for a blog topic. So here goes...feel free to leave any suggestions in the comment section...I would appreciate it. Here is my list:
Play Doh, (who taught them to spell anyhow? Isn't that spelling of doh kind of like that word made popular by Homer Simpson? Does Play Doh have a case against the Simpsons franchise because of copyright infringement using the word doh? Did you know that according to the Oxford English Dictionary the word spelled doh is the first note of a scale...like Doh! A deer, a female deer! Is Play Doh musical?)
Straws: Who invented them, and for what purpose were they invented...for drinking through? Or for breathing through...and if it was for breathing through was the discovery made that they could be used for drinking through after some unfortunate breather accidentally drowned?
Ten Gallon Hats...how come they don't really hold ten gallons? Were they named ten gallon by someone who is mathematically challenged?
Is white chocolate really chocolate? I could do a whole series on the joys and sorrows of chocolate. White chocolate is not really chocolate in my opinion, but its still good...so I guess it can keep the name of chocolate.
How come I can't understand what they are singing in Opera even when its actually sung in English?
Duct Tape...Did you know that they now make Duct Tape bandages? Like a band aid, only with Duct Tape...who would want to put that on their skin? Would it leave a scar when it was removed, or just a sticky residue?
Shaving legs...who invented that? Was it some man who thought it would be more feminine?
Eyelashes...Why do men get the long ones when they don't care? And why do women care?
Crayola vs. Rose Art: The showdown no one wants to see because we already know how it will end.
Toothpaste...what is your favorite? What is mine, and why?
Boy I hope I don't have to use any of these in my next blog...
