on blogging

last night I went to ASSSSCAT, and Sarah Silverman told a story about a family member. And then came back later to say that she had been thinking about that story and felt bad about telling it, so if we HAD TO BLOG ABOUT IT (and she knows we'll just HAVE TO), to use code. I think this is hilarious. Because the fact of the matter is that I bet a majority of the people in that room have SOME TYPE of blogging outlet. And that is crazy....that we all think that someone out there might actually be interested in what we have to say....and what's even crazier is that it's probably true. I love landing upon a random blog from a random person, and if it steps a few lines outside of the "this is what i did/ate/said today" then I might actually revisit it.

The music industry is like this, too. And i think about that often. Now, anyone can be a musician. Anyone can record something in their apartment, anyone can upload that to the internet and anyone can sell a track for as much as they want and possibly make money off of it. Because of this, there's a lot more crap to sift through, and I hate thinking about the fact that someone might consider what I do a part of that crap they have to sift through (so i don't think about that very often). I'm not even sure what my point is here, but i feel like i just climbed a mountain and now I'm at a plateau, trying to figure out which mountain to climb next. And I don't really know the answer. So I'm blogging. Because I know I can do that, and someone will probably read it.

ps, video blog coming, i promise.
