My First Time

I don't blog. Well, I never thought I would blog, might be more accurate. I always maintained that you had to feel pretty self-important to post something and expect people are going to read it. But I've learned that the world is a funny place, and people do weird stuff all the time, including read strangers' blogs!

I do maintain accounts at other sites. I've a page (wall?) on Facebook. I think I created it to do something else, but I've forgotten now what it was, and I'm taken by surprise when someone friends me on Facebook. I keep forgetting it. I've an account on Live Journal. I've made fantastic friends, discovered quite a bit about myself, and have a tremendous amount of fun there. It's not open to the public, however.

This is, apparently. So, here it is, my first blog.

Do I have anything important to say? Not really! But it is still early, and I've not gotten out of bed properly, yet. Going pee and getting coffee doesn't count. Getting out of bed is more of a state of mind than physical action, in my opinion.

I don't talk much about myself. I never have, and I can't see myself starting now. I can be funny. I can be sarcastic. I am even a bit intimidating at times. I'll offer opinions, make observations and sometimes tell jokes.

I've an account on Twitter. Don't we all? You can find me here http://twitter.com/Daria67 . Just so you are aware, I won't follow just because you follow me. I will check out your wall, read what you have to say. If I think you are funny/interesting/sarcastic/insert other adjective here/ and I think we'd get along, I'll friend you. If not, don't feel bad, please. If I Tweet and you like it, comment on it! I read them, and I usually respond, as well. Do it enough, and well, we'll see what happens.

Kinda like real life, isn't it? You don't make friends right away. You scope the other person out, run into them from time to time. Make small talk. See if they've the qualities you're looking for in someone to hang out with. Of course, it's great if you come recommended. A friend of a friend, and all that. I've met some great friends like that.

So, there you have it. A brief intro by me and a link to Twitter - all because I am shameless and want more followers.

I hope like hell you comment and I can read them. I've yet to figure out how to leave a comment. I try and try, it's like they don't want me to speak. Hmph.

  2. I like you and am glad we're Twitter friends. This is the first time I've read your blog and I will be back, so write something! I know you must have stuff that happens day-to-day and that's what blogging is all about.

    That said I have one and don't write much. Mine is davidbailie.blogspot.com so go for it. You'll be the first.

    Ooh there's soft-core porn on TV.

    Sorry our date got f'd up tonight. Twitter screwed me. Hopefully we can do it again some time. It'll be our second date! Hmm, what goes along with a second date? Not sure but I'm sure I'll like it.

    Thanks for hanging out with me these last few nights, talk tomorrow (Sunday) if you have time.

    Db (vanmacguy) My real name is david bailie by the way and my email is david at bailie dot org.

    Hugs.
