I Blog because.......... I have one of those jobs that gives me waaaaay too much free time with nothing to do but browse and bore people with my rantings...
I blog because it's part of my plan for domination of this and other worlds.
I blog because no one who knows me thinks I'm funny, but I've got ALL y'all fooled.
Also, because on the interwebs, you can't see that I don't comb my hair everyday and therefor can not judge me.
And finally, because I "meet" wicked cool people like you!
(why, yes, that WAS an attempt to butter you up)
What a fun prize!
I blog. . .to document and reflect.
...to connect.
...to hopefully entertain.
...to listen to myself talk?
...to have an outlet.
...to keep perspective.
*tap, tap, tap*
Is this thing on?
I blog because no one in my house listens to anything I have to say. And I know I have important things to talk about, darn it!
I blog because it is the only things that makes all the voices in my head talk one at a time instead of all at once.
I started blogging about 3 years ago, because it suddenly became very popular here and a blog was "must have" thing. If you don't blog, you don't exist, you know...
So I made a knitting blog, because this is my biggest hobby and other knitters were blogging too.
The beginning was very funny. I knew nothing about this online world and I truly thought I need to post a new interesting story every single day. And blog can't be interesting without photos, so sometimes I knitted until midnight to finish a new knitting project and post it online, so no-one would say I missed a day :)))
Luckily soon I realized that no-one will die if I pass a day and write only 2-3 times a week. And it was more fun like this.
But why I still blog... In those 3 years I have found some great online friends all over the world and this is a great way to keep in touch and see what others are doing.
And I admit it's nice to read the comments, see the blog statistics and feel like I'm a bit important, if so many people take a time to check out how I'm doing.
Are we talking about bloggin vs posting? Since I am a blognovice and am not familiar with all the terms yet, I need to know the difference. Actually, I'm sort of a BlogLoiter.
If I qualify for your contest here is my entry:
I blog /post because my true calling as an International Movie Star has (so far) not panned out and I have a lot of time on my hands.
I blog because it relieves my stess levels to be funny and find funny blogs.
I blog because I like finding people who have the same interests as I do.
I blog because I like to share my luck with other people.
I blog because it makes me happy.
I blog because it makes me feel proud of myself and like i've accomplished something.
I like to blog because it is a way to share my hobbies.
I blog for fun.
I blog to see how many people I can lure into my space on the web!
I blog to promote my etsy shop!
I blog because I have to or I'll go crazy .. I am just full of stuff I have to get out and it's nice when people comment. I really really really really like both those time keeping devices!
I blog because...
I'm now addicted.
I've met/read some really funny people because I can't stop reading/ posting.
It's a great thing to do when you have insomnia.
I'm eternally hopefully that I'll win something really cool and my watch stem thingy broke last week:-(
Oh, and in the marching band? My favorite instrument is the kazoo.
And the tuba.
But the kazoo is easier to carry.
Nice band, by the way.
Oooh! Cool stuff!!
i blog because I don't have enough to do as a single mum with 2 businesses. Obviously.
And because I have many friends around the world and I'm too lazy to email them individually.
And because I find people like you with COOL STUFF to giveaway!!
I blog because I think that one day I'll pull something brilliant out of my butt, and I want to have a record of it.
And I mean that figuratively but, the web being what it is, I suppose that literally pulling something out of my butt would generate more hits. Not my target audience, but still.
And I REALLY want free stuff. :)
I blog... so that I can remember all the cute/horrible/funny things happening in my life which I will have forgotten by Tuesday if I don't immediately write it down.
I blog because there is nothing good on TV anymore.
And I drink because my children cry.
I blog because...somewhere I learned to enjoy writing. And it's much easier than journalling 'cause I can use photos. And now I blog because I've made so many friends out there in the blogosphere.
I blog because all the cool kids are doing it.
I blog because I think it is my best path for world domination.
I blog because my humor, intellect, advice, and beauty are wasted on just the locals.
Just found your blog and it is great. Love the watch and clock and the humor!
I blog because it is good practice. LIke many other bloggers, I enjoy writing and realize that the more I write, the more I think of writing.
I like to go about my day and then tell myself "I can blog about this!". That can be hard for me sometimes, because I spend my days in a REALLY INTERESTING AND OFTEN FUNNY social work job, but everything I do is safely protected by federal laws of confidentiality and trying to get readership by posting about the vulnerable is messed up. SO I typically post about movies I watch, my yoga and meditation practice, my cats, trips I go on with my surfer boyfriend, etc. No too exciting, but my grandparents read it on a very regular basis which is quite sweet, I think.
I blog because I enjoy writing and love connecting with other people who I would not ordinarily get to meet.
Hugs,
Debbie
I blog because if I didn't, I would have pulled out all my hair long ago.
(For an outlet, I blog for an outlet!)
LOVE the prizes.
I blog because..... i have all these thoughts in my head and if I couldn't get them down on paper ('puter) I'd probably go nuts from the buildup.
Although it's probably too late. People tell me that I'm already nuts. That may be why I haven't blogged in a while :)

I blog because it is an outlet for subconscious narcissism! Isn't that why everyone blogs?
I blog because I need a place to vent. My favorite bass player is Les Claypool. Don't be quotin Primus in vain, or I won't let yall come over an eat my boled peanuts.
I blog because my real life conversations leave some people feeling defensive.
Or so I'm recently told.
I blog because I enjoy it and I am hooked!! :)
Neat giveaway prizes, please include me in the draw!
I blog because I can write as many fucking cuss words as I want.
Hi Lorrie,
I have been meaning to tell you that every time I walk into my garage now, I think about you...It's true, I think, "I wonder how Lorrie is doing today." or "Lorrie is such a sweetheart!" or "Gosh, that Lorrie comes up with the cutest stuff!" You see, right after Chanukah, I found three of your "Create a Chanukah Platter" kits(not sure exactly what they are officially called, but I think you know which ones they are), at 50% off, and so I purchased two for my little nieces, and one for my family. Being the totally organized person that I am(NOT!), they are still sitting neatly inside of my garage right by the door. Each time I walk in and out, I look at them and think of you. It's a nice reminder that I loved your work even before I "met" you through our blogs, and that I like it even more now that I actually know you! So fun!
Thank you so much for the lovely comment you left for me the other day! Your kind words really mean a lot to me. You are so good for my spirit, dear one. I am going to be adding you to my "Favorite Places to Visit" in the next couple of days because I think you are adorable!
Hope you had a great weekend!
hugs,
Debbie
