Well good evening or good morning, depending on where you are in the world!
It's a couple of hours away from bedtime for me and as usual I'm shattered. I
narrowly missed going to my gym class due to the heavy rain this evening (its
lame I know). If the rain keeps on coming like it has for the past few days and
I keep skipping the gym, I'll get so fat I'll have to be air-lifted into work.
So, what's been happening in the world of Micro G? I've been working away on
the crochet blanket tonight and whilst at work today was quizzed about why I
like to blog. People forget it's usually a personal thing and a hobby and often
don't really understand bloggers' motivations. For me, well I enjoy meeting new
people through blogs and Twitter, I also love learning about the technology
behind it and like to keep friends and family up-to-date on my latest knitting
and crochet projects, especially mum, "Hi mum!"
Mr brother takes a dim view of company Facebook sites and 'corporate' blogs
and I have to admit, even though I'm not getting any younger myself, when I
hear of men in their '50s gloating about how influential they are on Twitter, I
can't help but smile wryly. Could social media be the new symptom of midlife
crisis now that the banks have taken all our money and no one can afford to buy
Porsches anymore?
I have plenty of other hobbies, too many really and I firmly believe blogging
is way cooler than Facebook, or bragging about work or money (no one likes a
bore).
Little by little I've been tinkering with my new blog site over the last
couple of weeks and it's slowly starting to take shape now. I'm not sure how it's
going to turn out but sometimes it's nice just to let your imagination run
wild...
