Welcome to my favorite new blogger
There's a new blogger on the block. And watch out kids -- your blog isn't going to be the coolest one anymore. This is similar to what happened when Jordan came back to the Bulls in 1995, after his attempt at becoming a baseball pro. It's like... "No offense Houston Rockets. We know you won the last two championships and all that. But you're not the best team anymore, and everyone knows that."
So who's causing all this hubbub? My girlfriend, of course.
The beautiful J1 decided to start her own blog this evening. She's also using blogger, and you can find her here.
I'm rather excited about all of this.
First and foremost, it no longer means that I'm automatically the geekiest party in our relationship. People can no longer say, "Oh yeah, BRY is such a geek. He even has one of those Interweb Bee Log things." There's strength in numbers, I'm telling you.
Of course, I realize it is completely delusional for me to envision that J1 is going to be considered as big of a geek as I am just because she has a blog. I'm stuck with the geek tag -- and I'm slowly coming to grips with that.
Being (quasi) serious, the thing that I'm actually excited about is that I know J1 is going to have a great blog. She's a good writer, and she really engages her reader.
In fact, I remember I first was really impressed with her intelligence because of the great emails she'd send me. They were so funny, and written in a way that grabbed you and made you listen to every word she had to say. I think she's going to bring the same writing abilities to her blog, and I'm looking forward to seeing the results.
Of course, I'm doing a little technical consulting for her. Tinkering with the template, and stuff like that. There's other stuff that could be changed, but it depends on what she wants. In the meantime, she has better graphics than I do. Go figure.
I suppose I should have been spending time tinkering with the two other sites I'm supposed to be updating/redesigning, but that can wait for another day. This is more fun.
