Anyone who has visited my site regularly knows that I occasionally run into dry spells where I have nothing to post. By “occasionally”, I mean “usually”. There are days and weeks that flow by where nothing overly interesting or out of the ordinary happens. Or maybe something interesting does happen but I don’t have the time, energy, or lack of inhibitions to share with the whole world.
I do sometimes put posts out there with interesting items I find on the interwebs or that were sent to me in emails, but I don’t really want to turn my blog into that kind of blog, not that there’s anything wrong with that.
So… I want to keep my blog personal, but quite frankly, my life is interesting enough to entertain me and not necessarily interesting enough to entertain the masses on a daily basis. It’s not like I’m living a soap opera life or anything. I also don’t necessarily want to make my blog so personal that it reads more like a diary. That could get either really boring, or really too interesting!
But then I was reading comments from my buddy’s blog, Steel White Table, and someone left a comment on one of his peanut butter posts. The comment read more like a story. An anecdote. My buddy’s response was “This site needs more anecdotes.” Eureka!! That’s IT! Freakin’ anecdotes! I got lots of those suckers!
For instance, there was this time once when… uhm… Oh! Yeah, once when I was… no, that was a TV show I saw. Let me think…
(sigh…) Anyone have any anecdotes to loan me?
