This isn’t my first time. My blog cherry was popped exactly a year ago.
The experience: It was an uncomfortable combination of excitement and trauma. Looking back, I was so naive. It took place in my first week at the University, when I was quietly approached and then quickly thrust (for lack of a better word) into it all. There I was, a grown adult who should know what to do, and what to say, how to begin, but I was totally lost.
But, like every ‘first’, it soon became increasingly comfortable and over time I have become known as an expert-the resident blog guru. My job includes the maintenance and training of all blogs at the University but as can be expected, the creative freedom I crave is limited by the confines of the educational institution in which I work.
So, I decided to join blog forces with someone who makes me laugh daily and never ceases to entertain me with her anecdotal emails, Single White Femme. I guess every blog needs a Raison d'être. This one was prompted by a deep love for the written word, and an even greater love for sharing quirky viewpoints. Objective: not to make this blog stagnant, lame or take the form of an online diary. I realize a lot of the blogging world uses blogs as an outlet for their narcissism but I, along with Single White Femme, promise to deliver more.
We will try and avoid topics that induce snoring, and instead concentrate on the important news worthy topics that plague our lives. I can’t promise that all posts will be teaching you a valuable lesson, although most will. Sometimes it will just be necessary to address our disdain for thin lips, unruly fan-shaped nails, or tight underwear lines and we should be entitled to complain about the presence of undergrounder zits which were supposed to exist only in adolescence.
Note: posts of that nature will only surface on days when we are experiencing heightened womanly symptoms. We will return to our human form soon after.
The plan: Regular entries by both of us, on the same topic, taking a separate stance on the matter. You can be certain that we will agree on most things, but our differing life experiences will undoubtedly pave the way for some contrasting takes.
Snippets of life, love, healthy and unhealthy choices and most importantly… hilarity. That is our pledge to you.
Stop judging. Now.
