The Why

Today, Jacob asked me what the purpose of having a blog is. And I said, well, "It's like a diary. But public. So people can read it."

And then I said that I could post something about why I have a blog. And Megan, my coeditor and creative writing buddy, told me that would be stupid. So then I knew I had to.

So here it is. I have a blog because:

- I like to write.
- It's important to document these little bits and pieces (footnotes, if you will) of my life.
- I need to procrastinate frequently.
- It's fun to say "OMG I have to blog about this!" (sarcasm. i don't really talk like that.)
- It's pretty colors.
- The place to post photos I'm fond of is nice.
- Allow me to reiterate, I can waste lots of time reading and writing on my blog.
- I can fave my friends' blogs and comment upon and read them too.

That's all I can come up with for now :) L8r.
