Still Trying...

Well, I'm sitting here today with a nice glass of Nyquil and homemade Kleenex tampons in each nostril pronouncing my name as "Dayda." I know...not a classy side of me if there ever was one.

I am still trying to figure out this whole blog thing. I went on a blog quest yesterday, and I read some really nice ones that were so informative on different issues. Some even started out with such beautiful life quotes. Yeah, the only quote I can think of is...

"Friends are like butt cheeks, crap may separate them, but they always come back together." - Unknown

Since, I really didn't think I should start out using that quote, I won't. I'm really thinking mine is going to be like the Seinfeld of blogs. No point. However, I'm okay with that. This is sort of fun in an odd unfamiliar way.

So, I went to Old Faithful Google and searched, "What are you suppose to blog about?" Nothing really came up. It's like blogging is this vague unknown mystery. Then I went to Dictionary.com and found

Definition:	an online diary; a personal chronological log  of thoughts published on a Web page;also  called Weblog, Web log
Example:	Typically updated daily, blogs often reflect  the personality of the author.
Etymology:	shortened form of Weblog
Usage:	blog, blogged,blogging v,blogger n

Ah ha! Maybe I am doing this right? I can actually go online and spew the warped things that come from my pulsating brain shown by the throbbing vein in the middle of my forehead! This will "reflect the personality of the author." Sadly, I don't really know how to type or spell the evil laugh I do. I guess just try to imagine me doing this as I type my new precious blog:

If you don't get it, just smile and nod. Better yet, just squeeze out a courtesy laugh. The awkward laugh one gives to strangers who come up and say something completely not funny. I like to do that on occasion just to see who will give me a courtesy laugh.

Well, I hope all who read this have one heck of an awesome day! Do a good deed and give a good believable courtesy laugh to someone who crosses your path. I'm off to take some Robitussin shots!

(I just had my oldest daughter read this before I published it, and she gave me a true courtesy laugh. She's got my back...)
