My blog is a modge podge of insight on the complexities of life, love and the occasional philosophical reflection in order for my readers to dig deep into their souls and become better people. I am the Oprah of bloggers, just trying to spread my light.
Okay, basically, I tend toward the sarcastic and I write about the things that entertain me whether it is about my daily life or the time Miss South Carolina 2007 proved why Americans are bad with geography when her answer ended with “Iraq and Africa and such should help American education” or some such craziness that I had to blog about so it would remain forever in the archives of history as a poignant example of just how bad our education system really is.
I wipe butts and noses and pray I never get the two mixed up.
I am however, moving up the corporate ladder that is stay-at-home mom by graduating to such challenging projects as “Science Fair” and “Book Reports”.
Seriously, does a room full of fifth graders really want to watch homemade puppets act out a scene from the ‘Hardy Boys’?
They say to write about what you know and I know about my life since I’m deeply invested in it.
I am able to blog much quicker than if I were to write about fixing cars. I know nothing about that so I’d have to spend hours researching. I don’t have hours to research because I need time to wolf down ice cream and Girl Scout cookies before my kids get home from school.
On this blog? 14 months. But I did blog for my local newspaper for a year before I realized that I needed to spread my wings and I had a lot of material from the crazy people in my town (a lot of mental illness due to the lack of sun during the winter).
I didn’t feel it was appropriate to make fun of them to their face so I opted for behind their backs which has worked out well for me in the past, mainly in high school.
Millions, I’m guessing.
Although my ticker seems to be stuck at a palpable 100 people a day. But these are quality readers and everyone prefers quality over quantity. Right? RIGHT?!
Well, not nearly enough income to claim on my taxes or be eligible for tax breaks.
I believe I’ve made enough money to spring for the 20 oz. Diet Coke. Therefore, I have no advice on what has worked since man cannot live on Diet Coke alone.
What I’m doing right now, though, is not working. So, take what you want from that.
Men, women, children, housebroken pets. I’m definitely sure that everyone except psychotic crazies who’d build shrines to me in their prison cells would find me mildly entertaining if not worth a click just to blow off another twenty seconds at work.
Way too much time if the pile of dishes and dirty laundry are any indication. Or the fact that my son has been in the same pjs since January 13th.
Honestly, if you read it, you may think I need to spend more time on the blog.
Because the millionth subscriber gets a personalized e-mail from me (no purchase necessary, one entry per person, ARV priceless).
Write what you know, subscribe to my feed, become one of my followers, follow me on twitter and leave many, many thoughtful comments on each and every one of my posts. If you don’t reach maximum blogger stardom after that, maybe explore a different career path.
