So lately I have been thinking quite a bit about my blog name...maybe I should change it. I mean, I think it was pretty appropriate when i had first started this blogging thing, as I had kinda more of an idea of presenting the worlds events in the context of my own personal philosophy. Ok, not the worlds events. Like, not really stuff that would ever be covered on the news. Ever. Unless for some reason it actually had something to do with my personal life.
Ok, whatever. I just spent like 10 minutes staring at the screen trying to determine how to further explain myself, since I don't think I have 100% made that concept as clear as I could. But it really doesn't matter, I've determined, as thats not really the point. The point is that (I almost forgot the point..in fact shamefully I had to go back and read from the beginning to tip myself off) when I first started this blog concept I had had a totally different vision of what it would be versus what it ended up being.
This is the point in the post where I am going to admit that that isn't my only reason for maybe considering changing the name. Ok, and I really am hanging my head in shame, as we've already discussed I am the most easily influenced person sometimes. I don't even know how it happens. I mean, seriously, I know the power of suggestion is crazy, but nothing has to be suggested to me. My subconscious makes suggestions, and for some reason I am powerless to fight against those suggestions. At all. Whatsoever.
Ok, ok, so I admit, much like it was Rob starting up a blog that piqued my curiosity and finally wrestled me in to this blogging thing it was also Rob changing his blog's name that also had me thinking of changing mine. His concept was pretty much that he's grown and changed since beginning his blog, much as his reflections have too and so therefore he felt it was only natural that the name of his blog change as well. And that made a lot of sense to me. And then there's the new blog I've been reading lately (although haven't quite grown the cahonas..is that how you spell it?..to comment on yet) called Naked With Socks On.(url is http://www.nakedwithsockson.com in case you are curious)
Its awesome, you should check it out. But yeah, I came across this blog because of an add he sent out on black planet. And so I decided to check out his "bp" page to see what he had to say about it. And there he had this little explanation about the title of his blog, what it meant. And combined with the Rob thing not that long ago, I have been seriously contemplating this change.
I must take just a moment to say though that for once this wasn't entirely influenced by current happenings. If you remember, I had been considering changing my blogs name to tales of an insomniac...if you didn't read it, you can now, and to make it easy on ya I'll even give you a short cut. Just click here. It has been something I have thought about. Seriously. I swear...read it, you'll see..and that was forever ago. So there. (and yes I did stick my tongue out at you!!).
I am definitely going to think about this, although I won't make any moves towards this change without first being hit by a strike of inspiration as to what the new one should be. I think I'm gonna go read through some more NWSO while I'm waiting for ANTM (for those of you who live under a rock in a cave on Mars, with your eyes shut and your fingers in your ears--thanks for the saying Desi, probably one of the greatest things EVER!!---ANTM stands for America's Next Top Model...and if you can't, from this post, determine what NWSO stands for you're beyond help)
Anywho, enough of my blabbering
Cheers
