So my co-worker today said that my blog sounded like I was full of myself... like I believed that what I said was the most important thing in the world.
I wasn't really sure how to respond to this. At first, I reacted in defense, as I'm pretty sure nobody likes hearing that they are full of themselves. I've thought about it a bit...
A blog is a personal thing. It's an individual's voice on the internet -- a voice that other people can choose to listen to, or not listen to, depending on whether or not they believe that what the blogger is saying is important, humorous, or of any worth to them whatsoever. Ultimately, it is simply an outlet in which I am allowed to bitch, whine, write, report, etc.
Yes, I do hope that other people get something out of it. I hope that someone can read some of my ramblings and be like, "Yeah! I feel the same way and so maybe I'm not so alone in the world after all!", or "God, that was a really inspiring quote/lyric", or "God, I'm glad I saw that shitty ass opinion which clarifies my own feelings on the subject", etc. Of course I want that. If even one person can take something (positive or negative) from what I create, then as an artist, as a composer, as a person, I think I have done well.
Ultimately -- is that the point of this blog? No.
As everyone who is anybody knows...
... the point of this blog is to amuse and appease Beth.
DUUUUUUHHHhhhh!

I like my blog. It allows me to make entries personal, friendly, or public depending on my mood and the content of what I am writing. If I want to remember a sexual encounter I had with a hot person I can private it, or limit it to the special friends who care so much about my sex life. If I want to ramble about nonsense I can leave it public. Ah what a life we live.
I am very glad you are in realization of the point of this blog. And I must say I am happy with the frequent updates, it gives me one more thing to entertain myself with during the day ;)
As for sounding full of yourself...well fucking DUH!!!! Its your blog, about your life, your relationships, your work, your EVERYTHING ergo it should sound full of yourself and that what you say is the most important thing in the world because if it were anything else it wouldn't be a blog. So to the person who felt the need to say that, go get a blog of your own if Camerons isn't making you happy.
See Cammy, see how nice this is with me being able to post here. I am now able to infiltrate yet another portion of your life, soon the take over will be complete!

PS. I talked with Rao and she will not reveal the secret hiding place of your guitar picks. She did however say she plans to hold them hostage for some cat nip.
The bitch got some cat-nip last night. My, that was a funny sight.
My cat isn't big with catnip. she did like the plant I brought home, in fact she killed it, but overall she mostly shy's away from the drug. She is just not a nip-head.
