Up to this point in my time as an Earthling, my experience with blogging has been minimal at best. Of course, living in a rather technologically filled/polluted society, I have had little choice but to be familiar with at least the idea of what a blog is. I have to admit that I never really was entirely sure what a blog was until now. I did have my suspicions, which, I'm happy to say, turned out to be accurate, from what I'm seeing. To be honest, I am still uncomfortable with the fact that all of this writing will be online (big infinite black hole of a place that it is) and not on physical paper. I'll get used to it though, and maybe even grow fond of it...one day...
Anyway, in middle school, the closest to a blog I got was through a group of friends who belonged to a "FanFic" archive. They would post their stories online. It was a bit of a crazed fad for a year or so with them. They went about sharing their "FanFics" with one another in the mornings, crowded in groups on the hallway floor on laptops. It was mostly gossipy things and fantasy couples between friends from what i understood. Sometimes I read them, but mostly was just confused by the big commotion. I caught wind of some exceedingly bizarre adaptations of stories (especially involving Harry Potter) that people would find and read with great vigor. I have no idea if this site is still in existence. So I guess I'm not a totally innocent blog virgin, but we certainly hadn't gotten past second base...until now.

I enjoy the title of your blog...it made me smile. :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, be sure you don't let the blog get to third base without at least buying you dinner first.
