I'm debating what I want to do with this thing called LJ.
My other blog is used for bitching about life and the wonders of my current going on's. Yet, LJ is always lurking in the back of my mind. There are a great deal of ppl who are much more amusing than my other blog readers (although there a few). It feels like there's something that should be done with this site. I'm too lazy to really run my own webpage for more than a month - so LJ sounds good, right?
Except I don't know what to do... ever since blogging has become such a celebrity in the world of news, there's always a feeling that I should try to do something.
I mean, everyone uses blogs to bitch about life, to take surveys, political views or to just update. But there are those phenomenal blogs which make headlines. Things about ppl think about. Like an adventure going through an entire cookbook.
Granted, my other blog gets hits by those who search for the word "naked". I think I used that in a poem of mine to describe something other than PORN. But guaranteed, it never fails to read the anti-stalker module's frame of "search?=naked" and to laugh slightly. I mean, are you that sad of an individual to try to find porn on blogs? Where has our world gone to?
Anyway, I digress. The point of this entry is, what should I make this LJ into. I have more than enough time at work to do updates. I just don't want to duplicate what I'm writing on my other blog. Like that one is important too (but hey, I customized the hell out of that. Even wrote HTML. Now that takes a lot).
There's a sign on a wall that says "Nate, I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, and I'm not sure if there's room for you too". I'm trying to figure it out. I thought of Zen...but who really cares about that? My life is full of koans anyway - so again, I'm not about to duplicate that.
One idea is just to log what restaurant I'm going to eat at. I also tried to update on rping, but I feel that's not right...and more importantly, who cares what Bork the fighter did with a +gillion broadsword. It lacks subtlety and substance. I also want to shy away from video games, etc. Yeah, there's a large crowd that is interested in that sort of thing. But at the same time, they get their fill from places like
Penny Arcade or
8-bit Theatre. The webcomics provide that sort of thing for everyone. For that same reason, no religion. There's enough of that bullshit in everyday life that I don't need to write it down.
Basically, I don't want to repeat, clone, etc. what has been done necessarily. I also want to create a substantative peace. Even if no one reads it, I don't mind as much. At least I feel like I'm getting something down.
If you happen to look back, I've deleted most entries. Those that you were once able to see but not anymore are either a) gone or b) private. The ones you can see follow with said format, except a few.
