10 things I love about blogging

1. Blogging provides an avenue for taking stock of my life.
2. Blogging connects me to my family more often - in a virtual, disconnected kind of way, provided they read it at all!
   
3. Blogging keeps me up-to-date with distant friends - well, the ones who blog anyway (and aren't they the most important ones?!)
4. Blogging is a portal to the world - from my little house I can beam chatter to the entire global village.
   
5. Blogging is a window into other people's worlds - click 'next blog>>' and be amazed by who you bump into.
   
6. Blogging is an outlet for every extroverted tendancy I have. It's also potentially a sign that computer nerdiness is inherited. Sigh.
   
7. Blogging is a safe way to voice an outrageous opinion without the risk of personal harm.
8. Blogging helps my marriage - let off steam on-line without dumping on Frank! Hooray for blogging.
   
9. Blogging fills in time while the football is on. Perhaps I should move this to the number one position?
   
10. Blogging is a great topic of conversation. Actually I'm not so sure about that - the minute I intoduce how much I love blogging into most conversations people start looking at me like I have grown horns. Oh well.
