A Blog Jog








October 29, 2009


I have much more experience jogging than blogging, so minus the shin splints and sweaty, flush face here I go. I must admit moving from paper to computer is quite a monumental jump, but one I shall take to stay current in this age of constant change. I shall create something "out there" that is, shall we say, semi-permanent. I can tell it will take time to get used to it. Not to mention the time commitment to actually sit and write about what feels, at this moment to be virtually nothing. I'm already editing my text. How do you control the internal critic in order to simply write when you know the world can see? Ahh, a virtual dilemma. Well, a actually a real dilemma in a virtual environment. Weird. To blog about blogging, what a strange activity. My hopes for this expression include sharing information, photos, video, music that I have discovered to be moving to me and of interest to others. But more importantly, I hope to find a comfortable place to put some of those thoughts in the back of my head about things in life that constantly make my brain itch. They need a place to be and I can write faster here than I can write with pen and paper (or for that matter, faster than I can jog). Whew! First workout, done.
