Where to Start?


So I wanted to start a blog. But what could I possibly have to contribute to the world that thousands of other people aren’t already writing about? My dream would be to have my own lifestyle blog. But no Gwyneth Paltrow, life is perfect and everything is flawless and white Goop-y stuff, but my real life: sitting on my comfy couch in my Snoopy T-shirt and fiance’s old boxers, binging on past seasons of Mad Men with a bowl of popcorn mixed with M&Ms by my side. Seriously, if you have never mixed popcorn and M&Ms, you need to. At the next movie you go to, try it, your life will change! But it has to be plain M&Ms. Peanut ones if you’re in a pinch, but the plain ones are the way to go.

So anyway, I approached a college friend of mine on Facebook about her thoughts on a hosting site. I really admire her social media, really all media savvy, and I knew she wouldn’t lead me astray. So I’m here, and I’m just going to see what happens. I’ll just write my moods, my thoughts, my perceptions, maybe even some real work that might turn into some freelancing.

But back to Mad Men, I’m becoming completely obsessed with Betty’s perfect fingernails. Don’t even get me started on the women’s wardrobes! We’re in the third season, and I think if Dave, my fiance, and I apply ourselves, we might be caught up to the seventh season by the end of the summer!
