My thoughts on life, love, and other things not so serious.

I love to write. I really do. With that said, I don’t have an explanation for why I go through seasons where I don’t blog. I think it’s because I often begin to blog for the wrong reasons. I blog so others will read. Or more specifically so others will comment, and say something like: “Oooh, good post. I really enjoyed reading that”.

Confession: I crave the affirmation of others. It’s a weakness of my flesh. Sorry.

Back to my original thought. I like to write. Really… I do! I love to find new creative outlets. Recently I began writing a weekly recap column for the Fantasy Football League that I’ve been in for 4 years. It’s fun, I get to pretend like I’m an expert, and analyze meaningless fantasy football stats. I even give away weekly awards. It’s sort of an homage to Peter King’s weekly Monday Morning Quarterback article on www.si.com

Recently I’ve been feeling an urge to blog again. Not sure why. I think I just need an outlet. I’ve been reading more lately than I have in several years. I want to share some of the things I’m learning, processing, and struggling with.

I’m embarrassed by my lack of consistency in blogging. Every time I end an e-mail with my signature, I see my blog address, and hope that the person on the other end won’t visit the blog. I hope they’ll see my Twitter URL and check that out instead. I’m a good Twitterer!

All of that to say. I’m blogging again. Not for you. But for me. Hope that’s okay.
