Brownies and Blogs

I just pulled some box-made brownies out of the oven just now and I have no idea why I decided to start a blog.

I really don't know if being a blogger is the best thing one can do. I have my inner-skeptic shouting that this isn't the brightest idea that I have ever come up with. But for those of you, who ever you are, that read this... I hope that by my venting through a blog, you can enjoy the daily quanderings that I undergo. Maybe that will make us get along, or maybe we will straight out hate each other, in either case hopefully it is entertaining for both of us, the writer and reader, along with the commentary that might pile in. Who knows. Does anyone read these things anyway?

At any rate my life is NOT horribly unique, nor is there anything that makes me more distinguished than anyone else out there. But I like to believe that when people tell me that I am gifted, talented, funny, crazy or all the other flattery based compliments, that I somehow DO contribute to their lives. And after having dozens and dozens of people tell me, or rather ask me, where they can read my writing or hear my music or whatever else I do, it seems like a blog is the best answer. dun dun dun. Who knows?!

But really, I am going to abusively blog. I need some sort of an accountability system. I am the wizard of create a new project. Boredom being a pet-peeve of mine. Start a project, then start a project, to start a new one. Arrrgh! Eventually the mountains of guilt that I should be working on XYZ jumps in while I am still feeling occupied by ABC. None of which helps. How I am pulling A's & B's at the University is beyond me.

So if you can relate to that High-Five.

Except I really want to get things done. I NEED Some sort of order! Planners, calenders or setting alarms on my phone all his the productive gag reflex. I mean no offense Stephen R. Covey and the Franklin planner but those things do NOT work with my brain. But brownies do. I guess chocolate in general. I bet this blog will too!

Because... IF I BELIEVE that someone is on the other side is actually wanting to see me accomplish something, then I will definitely follow through--something a planner never came with. Oh, wow! that sounded like I was talking about God for a second...

But NO DAMN IT!

This is a BLOG and I BELIEVE that REAL PEOPLE are reading this--even if its the mystical people.

So here's the plan that I've came up with while I scarfing brownies with a spoon. A spoon because I was too lazy to look for a clean utensil from the dishwasher.

Anyhow... THE PLAN:
  1. Create a NEW Habit of Accomplishments
  2. Write/Post something new for 365 days
  3. Get focused
I suppose that summarizes it. Seems like a good chunk of what one might blog about.

For the record I will be posting poetry, drawings, videos, music, recipes and things I find out along the way. So stay tuned...
