My New Project

Blogs are self-indulgent, but there’s nothing particularly wrong with indulgence in the self.  Last night, I watched a TLC show called “Jon and Kate Plus 8,” a light-hearted (but harrowing) look at the rewards and difficulties of raising eight children.  Eight screaming, yelling, fighting, running, jumping, shrieking children.  The mother decided to spend the day at a luxurious spa, indulding in all manner of vain pursuits.  She said – during her spiritually comforting facial – that spa days made her a better mother. 

 I don’t doubt that for a moment. 

Everyone needs a little, “this is for me and I don’t care about you” time.  Blogs are figurative podiums, surrounded by anonymous commenters masquerading as the new world’s free press. 

 Since I’m not a real writer yet (and may never be, who knows!), this will have to do.

I’ll try to make it interesting for you, should you care to stop by again.  Maybe there’ll be a video (perhaps a pornographic one).  It might contain your mom, possibly your sister, and definitely your spouse or significant other.
