Blogging About Blogging...

I watched a pretty cute but corny movie the other day – Julie and Julia. (I think that was the title.) It was all about some girl who was fed up with her boring life and decided to cook every one of Julia Childs’ recipes in her cookbook within a year. She blogged about this project every day. By the end of the film, when her year was almost up and her task almost complete, her blog was one of the most popular on the site she used. She was being offered publishing and writing opportunities, a cooking show, articles in magazines, etc. Basically, she kept an online journal of her cooking endeavors and she got rich and famous off of it… Really? Does this kind of stuff happen? I must admit it is almost intriguing to me to think that I could babble on about the random junk that happens to me throughout the day, acquire some sad fan base, and get famous from it. Obviously I would have to have some interesting things to say, but I’d like to think that my thoughts are just as interesting as cooking recipes. The movie is supposedly based on some truth so maybe this stuff really does happen. Or, maybe it’s like a ‘right place at the right time’ kind of thing where you just have to be lucky enough for the right person to read what you have to say. That kind of thing would never happen to me. Haha – Good luck doesn’t get close enough to me to throw a rock at. Whatever… Maybe someday, if I find the time between work/school/social life/errands/whatever else that comes along to busy me up, I’ll try spatting off my weird and wonderful thoughts on the internet and see how far it gets me… Ugh, even the thought of wasting any of my free time typing away on a computer is gross. How do these people enjoy it???... Yeahhh not for meee…
