I want to blog. I want to write. But I don’t want to write about politics, the news, or serious stuff. I want to blog something stupid and I need a goal.
Something Stupid and a Goal
Just finished watching Julie & Julia, again. I remember watching it when it first came out many, several years ago when I had already been blogging for quite some time. And I remember thinking, I wanna do that! Not do a cooking blog. But just have a goal, a deadline, a project to blog about.
But what? What do I do?
And then there was the time I wanted to be Carrie Bradshaw and even created a blog called Sex and the South. Lort.
When the Sex and the City reboot (And Just Like That) came out, I thought about blogging each episode but soon realized it was going to be so ‘woke’ I got turned off immediately. Not to mention, they killed Mr. Big and I quit watching after the funeral episode.
But what? What can I blog about, specifically – with a goal and deadline, a project blog.
- I don’t like to cook
- I’m terrible at reviewing books or movies (and I love watching movies).
- A fashionista I am not.
- I’m over political blogging, no. Just say no.
- I’m not really an expert on any particular topic.
- Too afraid to blog about Bible readings only because I’m such a novice.
So, I’m at a loss. I feel like a sad little person with no hobbies or interests. I blame social media. Maybe that’s what I can do. Get off social media and blog about life, real life.
I could blog about life happening to me, to us, instead of looking at someone else’s life on social media. It would be a short and boring blog though.
It looks like I am going to have to force myself to find something new to learn and blog about that experience. Maybe. Or force myself to write reviews of shows I watch, it would be good practice.
I don’t know, but stay tuned.
