Blog is me....

What is blogging? Where did it come from? How does "blog" even become a word? Does this mean that I can coin my own words too?

Medicine aisle

Stereotypes and cliches are so great because they are so true! I went shopping at Target today. Luckily, I was able to get in and out before the apres-work crowd who make it impossible to find parking!

I like to take my time at Target, zig-zagging between various aisles and looking at items on sale that I will never need. One of these aisles that I walked passed was the medicine aisle. I literally had to stop and walk back to observe this aisle! There were a handful of gray-haired folks looking at various bottles of pain medication, among other things. It was such the classic, stereotypical sight that I almost laughed out loud!

"Myrtle....what do you think of this new Aleve??" asks Henry.

"Oh, Henry! You should know better than to take a pain medication that your doctor did not prescribe you!" retorts Myrtle.

Yeah....I'm really looking forward to getting old. Reeaaaallly. I am......

The "novelty" effect

What is the "novelty" effect? Well, this blog is the perfect example! I started really getting involved with blogging about a year and a half ago when it was "oh so shiny and new"! Then, as life happened, my interest began to wane. Poor blog.....

So, here I am again. I hope my readers are still around....??? I've neglected this site for several months it seems....maybe there wasn't anything stimulating in my life since I've passed my CFP. Maybe I've just become a beach bum.....either way, this is no way to treat my blog, I suppose.

Let's get my blog back up and running! :) At least until the next time I get bored of writing.... :)
