I have out done myself

My blog has hit over 2,000 views for all time. Which is awesome, except last month I had over 600 views and now all I can think about is "How am I going to even close to that this month?"

It's a little intimidating.

I have out blogged myself. And I didn't even know that was possible.

A very good friend of mine has decided he is going to blog everyday for an entire year. My hat is off to him, that is really impressive. I am just trying to blog through the week and some (most) of the time even that is crazy.

A new year is always so full of possibilities, it makes people believe that if they dream and work hard enough anything is possible. It seems to me that I have lost the point of this blog. Originally I started blogging because I wanted a venue to share my poetry (I know, seems totally crazy) and then it sort of morphed into my space to complain about my life story. Now, now it has become a sort of sad hybrid of funny satirical commentary on life and my stupid choices. It's amusing, but I have never put any actual thought behind the slow slide of change.

It just sort of happened. I woke up one day and realized that I liked blogging about my awkward life stories, that it made me laugh when I could amuse someone else at my own expense.

My senior of college was rough. Like worst year of my life rough. And I think I have finally moved beyond all the crap that went down. Not that I have forgotten what happened, but I have given myself permission to get over it. And it feels great.

The reason why I never make new years resolutions is because I know myself well enough to realize that I will purposefully fail. Not because I can't do it, but because new years resolutions are made to be broken. Goals are made to be lost, and laws are only followed when I feel like it (and there is a cop around).

I've spent so much time and effort trying to show people I can do what I want that I stopped actually making choices for me.

Which leads me to the whole point of this blog. I have a new slogan for this year.

"I can do it."

My new slogan.
Be jealous.
I know I am.


And on that happy note, here is the lolz cat representation of my year (on second thought, I really hope not).
