Back when I was young, in the mid 90s, I used to have a geocities account where I would basically talk about daily shenanigans and random ideas usually related to programming. Awhile later the term ‘blog’ showed up and it just did not feel right. After reading a few blogs I grew tired of their idle talk about weather and their work day and I eventually started writing again, but I decided to talk about things in a sort of alternate reality or bastardization. I wrote about exploding toilets at work, made fun of my boss, and even wrote a hate section which was one of the biggest no-nos on geocities. My rebellious was overly negative and I got some very interesting feedback from people who discovered it.
So life goes on and here it is, a.. blog. Have I accepted the word? No. It still sounds stupid to me. Since I will be writing about many things including my music (which I am very serious about), and since I will have guest writers, I need to accept that it is a ‘blog’.
See? Blog is in the title. I have come a long way.
