I’m still playing with look of this blog, so don’t get too tied to the theme yet. However, I wanted to get a post up with pictures so I had some real content to play with. In this transition of my blog, I started re-thinking its purpose. When I first created the blog, I was mostly focused on having a place to keep my photos. Recently, it’s much more of a gaming blog. In the future, who knows what I’ll want to post about?
I’ve decided not to care. This is my blog, and I’ll post whatever I darn well feel like. I’m going to keep it super generic. Sometimes I’ll post about gaming. Sometimes I’ll post my family pictures, which I’m sure the gamers reading this blog couldn’t care less about. I’m sorry if this bothers any readers, but I realized that ultimately there’s really only one reader I want to cater to: myself.
I like posting about gaming because it forces me to better formulate my thoughts, kind of like thinking out loud. I like posting pictures so that I have URLs I can easily pass around, or just have them saved somewhere easy for me to go back and look at. And sometimes, I just like skimming back through my old blog entries purely for the nostalgia of it. I make no excuses, you’re welcome to come along for the ride, but this blog is really just for me.
And so, I give you some pictures I took last Christams. Enjoy.
“This is my blog, and I’ll post whatever I darn well feel like.”
Good choice. I find the best blogs do exactly that.
I’ve caught myself many times in the past typing up a post and then wondering, who is it I’m addressing? It’s much easier on my poor brain when the answer is simply: me.
