All About Me

I have to come clean - this is not the first time I have written a blog. About a year ago I had a fantastic idea: write a blog that was so narcissisticly over the top that it would be funny. I added pictures of myself with my family and friends, but would black out all the faces except mine. I referred to myself in the third person. I never strayed from anything but myself and how I felt about anything. I even added a poll where the list of answers all basically said "me". I thought it was absolutely hilarious and giggled while I wrote it.

I admit I was apprehensive since it was a little edgy. To ensure that it would indeed be received as I had planned, I showed it to a friend. The look of horror on their face was enough; the blog was shut down after only three posts. Turns out "edgy" was the wrong word to describe it.

That said I refuse to believe that the name of that blog, Narcissistic Musings, is anything short of a brilliant name for a blog. I'm so confident in that belief that I have kept it for this blog too. After all, lets me intellectually honest with ourselves (or me in this case)... blogs are intended to be about the beliefs, travels, trials, and travesties of ourselves. In the end who can't admit wondering if the short period we are here if it isn't all about me?
