Blogging in 2009

I've realized over the past year that writing up interesting little stories from my life for all the world (or a few friends) to look over isn't really my greatest strength, thus crossing another profession off of my list of things to make money doing.  Of course, there could be other reasons for this, such as not finding the right things to write about, or for that matter, being interested in almost anything enough to bother wanting to write about it.  With that of course, it's expected, I'm sure, as this is titled blogging in 2009, that I'm about to make an amazing resolution to blog more for your reading pleasure this year, that's where anybody reading this would be wrong.

After several botched attempts at making resolutions between the years 1986 and 2002 I realized that resolutions are a joke, and one easily forgotten between the months of January and February, so obviously they're not very funny jokes either.  That being said, this is a fairly dreary place, with very few articles, and fewer readers, though I do appreciate those who do check in from time to time.  With 2009 however, comes my continued mission here, to write when I feel like it, and try to make quality posts from time to time, punctuated by the odd game of blog tag.  

Also, before I forget, I'd recommend everyone forget about making resolutions, the new year isn't a good excuse to try and kick yourself in the butt.  My advice, if you know there's something you need to do, or which you'd like to improve about yourself, make the decision every day you're alive, so long as the goal is important to you.  New Year's Resolutions fade and die, with little meaning once the Martinelli's induced stupor fades off.  Having an every day personal goal though, that's something that can stick with you, because it's something you mean, it's real and personal, not just some annual exersice in your procrastination abilities.
