This is all fine and perfectly good reading if it's about a Ninja Assassin Billionaire with evil aspirations for world domination. That's the type of person you want to live vicariously through, safe in the knowledge that you'll probably never have to actually tangle with their golden shruikens of doom.
Not so welcome of course is the type of blog that turns out to be a dissertation on the day-to-day life of a Dictionary Salesman, Bee Keeper or slightly angsty emo-child. It lacks bite. It lacks verve. It lacks anything even remotely interesting to most of the outside world.
So that won't happen here. Instead of the entirely mundane life of a Graphic Designer which generally (for the most part) consists of my changing programs between Photoshop and Illustrator and on slightly more exciting days taking a photo or two, I will embellish.
For example I might go out of the house and walk about a bit in the park...
...this simply will not do. For one thing it's far too short a story. It may well be the most exciting thing about my day but interesting it is not. Instead it would be far more interesting to say that not only did I leave the house and go to the park but also that I was attacked by a pack of ravenous squirrels and had to fight them off by fashioning a club out of the nearest Badger. This could then be accompanied by a picture of a badger like this.
Much better than a picture of me...
...here's a picture of me anyway with my eyes, in my head, behind my glasses, seeing boring things.
Anyway please don't be put off by my boring face I promise never again to bore you with it and to instead excite you with tales of things more interesting and perhaps more pictures of badgers.
Mmmmmm, what a lovely picture of a badger.
ReplyDeleteI do like a good shot of a badger =)

People don't blog about Badgers nearly enough do they? You and I Jen, we will fix this tragic state of affairs and right the world, one badger at a time.
