I have had this hang up with the idea of me blogging. I enjoy reading all kinds of blogs but typically they tell quite a bit about the blogger whether or not it is about work, school or personal interests. I wasn't sure if I was comfortable with posting my personal life on the Internet. It is somewhat like my thoughts on Facebook where all if my worlds both past and present collided. Did I really want that to happen? School friends, couple friends, work friends, family.....what happens when they merge? Eeeek! I found out it isn't the end of the world. No one has freaked out on me for the crazy party pictures I have had posted nor have they said they have seen too many photos of my kids. It has provided a great spot to stay in touch and get back in touch with all kinds of friends. Worlds collided, I survived and can still be me.
Today, I was inspired by my bosses 9 year old daughter to start a blog. She is a bright creative girl with some great things to say. I think it is such a good use of time to be able to organize some decent thoughts and spit 'em out. I am guessing this will become a collection of my random thoughts, rants, stories and whatever else springs up from my life as a wife, mom of three rambunctious and fun children and career in a fantastically fun start up company (www.alice.com). Please remember if you chose to follow that you read at your own risk. The usual "opinions of the author only" and "can't be held responsible" disclaimers apply.
Today's random thought is on fear or phobias. I have a friend that is really afraid of flying, one that is claustrophobic and now just learned of the fear of cotton balls. Mine is the dentist. I faced my fear today and went for my semi-annual dentist visit. As usual, I held my breath during the whole thing and walked away with an excruciating headache and was actually sore from being tense the whole time. Fear...its a nasty thing. Just face it!
