So, one of my New Year's resolutions was to start a blog. Ok, I know, it's Feb. 26th, 2010. So I'm a little late. I guess you can say I procrastinate. But I've decided that if I want to do this I need to be disciplined. If I can write for an hour or two a week, I'll be off to a good start.
What is this blog going to be about, you might ask. Well, I know there are thousands of blogs out there. How am I going to make mine different? How am I going to make it stand out? That's the dilemma. In order to make mine worth reading, I'm going to write about stuff in pop culture: movie reviews, thoughts on TV shows I enjoy, stuff that annoys me, stuff I find interesting, etc.
I'm probably not going to bring up stuff in my personal life because, let's face it, my life is pretty boring. I'm married to a wonderful guy, have a dog, work, live in Pasadena. There's not a lot of drama with me and my family and if there was, I doubt anybody reading this would be interested. I'm not so self-involved or delusional to think that my life is important to anyone but me and my family.
Quite frankly, that's the one major problem I have with "reality" shows. The Kardashians, Jon and Kate, The Housewives of Fill-in-the-Blank...need I go on? This manufactured, so-called reality really frustrates me to no end. The idea that people are famous for being famous (Paris, I'm looking at you) is really so annoying, so ridiculous, that it makes me want to shoot my television. But, if I did that, I wouldn't be able to watch Lost, so I deal with it.
My point about that little rant is that I'm not going to be blathering on about my life. I just want to share my opinions about entertainment and such. That's all. If a little incident about my life happens to make it to my blog, you can read it or not. But there won't be many of them, I can assure you. But if you want to read a review of a new movie or DVD, what I think about RuPaul's Drag Race, or how Sarah Palin's an idiot, then stick around. Hopefully you won't be disappointed.
Until next time, this has been Lilrthquak's Thoughts.
