To Blog or Not to Blog

To blog or not to blog… now that is the question. I would be lying to say I haven’t ever blogged before, but it was a small blog, I quickly lost interest in. I lost interest perhaps because I hate blogs, or perhaps because I hate sharing my life, or perhaps I think no one would care. Mostly though I lost interest because perhaps I think people would care.

For example take the article I wrote not to long ago about vibrators. It was ok to share with a few friends, for a few laughs, but what about my brother reading it? Are sisters allowed to masturbate? Are future teachers? Are nieces, and granddaughters? I’m CERTAIN daughters are not allowed to masturbate. I am certain granddaughters don’t say the word fuck, and girlfriends don’t talk about poop.

I never realized until the blog what a closed private person I was. Private or paranoid one or the other I guess. In a way it seems easier to tell complete strangers your thoughts than to tell someone you know. But perhaps it is time to stop playing a character for each of my roles as a person. Perhaps now is the time in my life to just be me, and see what they make of it. So I bring to you Katie Lauren, uncut, unedited (obviously have you seen my grammar?) There is some old stuff I’ve written and some new stuff. I’ve had issues lately with getting anything decent on paper, so I figure I’ll add some old stuff to get me motivated.
