The Fearless Blogger

Warning - don’t get too close!  I seem to have come down with something pretty icky and would hate for you to catch it.  I haven’t been to the doctor yet, but I don’t need an MD to help me figure out that I’ve got a pretty severe case of Blogger’s Envy.  Hopefully it’s not contagious!

I awoke this morning to discover my beau has begun to blog!

Yay!  Seriously, this guy keeps getting better – blogging is so sexy!

My love and support for my man compelled me to read his first blog post as soon as I could (you should too!).  OK, my love and support for my man, plus the burning curiosity to see if he’d mentioned me at all (he did).

First: It’s not that my handsome honey is blogging – and is as fantastic at that as he is with all that he does – that left me with this case of envy.  It’s what he’s blogging about that’s left me with the aforementioned Blogger’s Envy:

This won’t be just a blog that functions as a diary. My goal is to pass along useful information that I learn and feel is valuable to others. Although it will have information about what I’m doing, it won’t be just about me. I’m always looking for a better way to do things and I do occasionally get obsessed with things until I figure them out  . . .  Since I’m always looking for a way to improve, I wanted a place to share those ideas. Here it is.

Hey!  That’s what I want my blog to be!   It’s what I had in my mind’s eye  – in my heart’s vision – when my blog was idea without a domain to call its home.

But I somehow missed the mark.   And as I’ve been grappling with how bring my blog back on course, the result has been some sort of mishmash of a form of meta-blogging where I feel like I am constantly blogging about blogging this blog.

Which after a while starts to feel a bit – well – stale.

And staleness leads to discontent.   And discontent, if left untreated, can quickly escalate to a raging case of Blogger’s Envy such as mine.

I’m not entirely sure of the cure, but I have a sneaking suspicion it includes copious amounts of chocolate, lots of bedrest (with kitties), and a healthy dose of Hulu.

Combine that with a strict elimination diet to rid myself of the talking, over-thinking, and meta-blogging and add a daily regimen of “just do it” and I should be on the mend in no time!

Second (I said this is a two part response):

Don’t call me Shirley!
