Today, during pre-marital counseling, the male half of my mentor couple was asking about blogging, and how it's set up, and I explained to him about free online sites like blogger.com and how some blogs were just desultory expositions on what people did during the day ("Today I walked around the Rice village and ran into an old friend") and some are centralized around a specific theme ("Sarah's Southern Cooking Journey" or "Fred's Foray Through Med School" or "Paul's Political Profferings").
He asked, "So why would people read your blog?" (in a general sense) and I said, "Um, because it's awesome?"
Of course, an old friend once told me, "I always thought of you more as a wise ass than a smart ass."
MLIA.

About Me
Why?
Some people keep prayer journals, to archive their thoughts and experiences with God and with life. I think I'd lose an actual journal if I kept one, but it's a lot harder to misplace the Internet. So here are my thoughts about God and about life. I am not always right, but I am always honest. I put them online because I think real community begins when we open doors that we normally keep shut.

HAHAHAHAHA!
That's why I read your blog.
How do you do premarital counseling? On skype? On a conference call?
totally a valid reason.
...though I tend more to read your blog b/c YOU'RE awesome.
he gets to be on speakerphone, Pat. he misses out on Houston traffic (woo!) but also misses out on face-to-face interaction, playing with their cats, and eating the muffins she bakes every time (boo!).
Well, that's why I read your blog. If that makes you a smart-ass, then what does that make all of us?
