The Musings of a Procrastinator

Wow!

Let me just start off with that. I didn't realize that it's been almost 6 months since I've updated. I knew it had been a while, but I didn't know it had been that long. Well, better late than never.

Let me explain while I'm finally updating. A few days ago, I had mentioned to my husband Andy that I was interested in starting a podcast. I'm addicted to podcasts and listen to quite a few on my Ipod while jogging, driving to work, etc. Some of my favorites are Feast of Fun, Savage Lovecast, After Hours w/ Heidi and Frank, Double Murder and Sugar and Cyanide. I started thinking I could possibly do one, talking about some of my favorite things: pop culture, gay topics, etc. My dear friend Avery does Sugar and Cyanide, so I'm thinking about picking his brain and finding out how to do one out of my house.

So, I explain my podcast idea to Andy, who says "Yeah, it can be a companion piece to your blog". OUCH!!! But he does have a point. I started this blog 6 months ago and am now just doing my second entry. You see, I have a tendency to procrastinate. A lot. I had planned on reading a lot more this year. It was actually one of my New Year's resolutions. I started out great and read quite a few books in early '10. Eventually that tapered off. I just recently started reading another book, but it's been months since I read my last book.

I don't think my problem is that uncommon. How many people have great ideas, yet never get around to them. They put them off because other things "get in the way". So, I made a deal w/ myself. I would like to start blogging once a week. Just to talk about general stuff that I think about, stuff in the news, pop culture, and other things that might be of some interest. If I can keep blogging once a week, then eventually this might very well be a companion piece to a podcast. Not only will my motivation be to prove Andy wrong (which is my duty as his husband), it will prove to myself that I have some follow-thru w/ ideas that I have.

So, look for another exciting post next week. There will be lots to write about.

Until then,
