I’ve been slacking with my blog. Another apology to the 5 people who actually read this: Chris, Kerin, Luis, my mom and dad, and occasionally Chelsea.
Last night in one of my classes we were talking about the “blogosphere” and how it’s grown, the root of it’s growth, and abunch of technicalities normal people really don’t think about. I mentioned that I have my own blog, mainly out of narcissism. It can be political but most of the time, it’s just me rambling about something. A lot blogs have evolved the same way. Many people consider blogs a news source. I certainly do. I have my own blog roll to the right of what I read and recommend to others. (Most of you won’t like what I read but I’m okay with being that minority in our friends circle.) But the bottom line is that there is this sort of blog epidemic with how fast they are growing daily. There is a blog for just about everything. I recommend you pick up another one besides mine.
Oh and I should mention that my two favorite bands came out with new albums in the last two weeks: AFI and the Backstreet Boys. Two complete opposite types of music but I have rather eclectic taste. As I get older, I’m beginning to realize how cheesy backstreet boy lyrics are. For example their single “Straight Through My Heart”, the chorus goes:
Straight through my heart
A single bullet got me
I can’t stop the bleeding
Ohhhh
Straight through my heart
She aimed and she shot me
I just can’t believe it
Ohhhh
No I can’t resist
And I can’t be hit
I just can’t escape this love
Straight through my heart
Soldier down(my heart)
Soldier down(my heart)
I mean it’s flat out dumb. It’s not even a good metaphor! But alas, I continue to listen. I am that 24 year old on the metro who listens to BSB. Yes.
Besides work and school, nothing else is really going on. My life is not as exciting as it used to be when I started this blog, circa 2008, with the election. I could bitch about the administration and the health care bill but I feel like if you watch enough tv, you already know what I’m going to say. I am going to work on bring my “To Wit” posts back. To Wit means that is to know and it’s basically a fun fact. They are usually pretty funny.
Ciao until next time.
