New year, new project! I recently realized that I am probably the most boring person on the planet. Whenever someone asks me what's new in my life, I can regale them with stories about two activities: working and drinking. No one wants to hear about these things, not even those who participate in one or both of these activities with me (side note: I am not an alcoholic. However, when you are young and single and living in Boston, drinking is pretty much the only social activity available). I do not have a boyfriend and/or husband (yes, some people have both. Share the wealth, people!). I do not have children. I do not have a job that people actually want to hear about. I have not been arrested. I have ten fingers and ten toes. Okay, so I once filmed a "testimonial" for an infomercial about the American Girl brand, but it was left on the cutting room floor (ouch). Basically, I have nothing going on in my life that qualifies for constant bragging via Facebook status updates. In fact, I am the person in your newsfeed who gets a kick out of raining on such braggarts' parades (today's status update: "2009 can suck it! Worst year ever!!!!!").
So, to make a long story short, I'm going to try blogging. I actually do have a lot of interests and I think I'm pretty cool once you get to know me, so I hope to share some of this with you via this blog. There will be no conceit or gimmick here, just me writing about stuff I like. However, since I like music more than anything, there will be a lot of posts about music. I also enjoy TV shows and movies, baking and cooking, celebrity trainwrecks, YouTube videos starring baby animals, breaking arbitrary social conventions such as limiting breakfast to only the first meal of the day, and composing letters to advice columns but never sending them. Welcome! Hope you'll stay a while.
