what's the point of blogging?

is the point of blogging to have people read what i write? i kinda don't care if people read it. knowing that i can remain somewhat anonymous and inaccessible is appealing to me it is (and why i don't have a cell phone). will i tell people i'm blogging? doubt it... then i would self censor- what fun is that? then it would be the same as the rest of life- questioning why i said that and wondering what so-n- so thought of it. my life is inhibited enough-

so there's this lady that i work with. for our purposes here we will call her ida. god bless ida! she is a cracked pot. she is always talking about how she's gotta take her xanax. i just smile and nod. she told me she was chronically ill with sinusitis- whatever the hell that is. i thought that maybe i should offer to pray for her but haven't done that yet. i swear if i followed through with half of my intentions and ideas- i think i would be much happier with who i am! she asked if i would be willing to walk with her at lunch sometime during the week... perhpas this will give another oppotunity to actually do what i think i should- rather than pass another opportunity by to be helpful and kind to someone who may need it. i can tell ida just wants someone to listen to her and love her. i hope i can do that.

i decided to lurk around some of these blogs to get some idea of how they are supposed to look and the purose they serve. then i scrapped that idea. i guess i will just let this blog be whatever it is supposed to be. plus i looked at lots of people my age who are gen x-ers and Believers as well. i'm so OD-ed on the whole 'i'm a post modern' schtick. not that there's anything wrong with that- i'm just tired of it.

want to try this feature (to promote a site i frequent)
