The Business of Blogging

Okay, so, while learning about my blog and how to set it up and make it "unique" I have been introduced to a new world of.... blogging!  I had no idea there was so many blogs, so many designs, and so many businesses devoted to blogging.  In my quest for blog ideas, templates, and designs I came across several different blogs.  So many people blog about their lives; weddings, babies, pets, cooking, gardening, deaths, clothing, and BLOGS.  I actually came across a blog where the blogger's sole purpose of the blog was to ask for money.  Apparently, in this lovely economy they had suffered some hardships and had looked to blogging to collecting donations.  Well, I admired the page the blogger had set up so I clicked the link to the site that created the design.  The sites only sells their blog designs.  Wait-what?!  Nevermind, I'm not going to judge.  Maybe the design was donated or maybe that is the blogger's business right?  Right.

I feel as though that paragraph overuses the word blog and contains too many lists.  Too tired/lazy to edit.  Baby M should wake up soon and I want to get to sleep.

Before I end this post, I have a few things to say about the 2011 Grammy's, and although this is poor organization (because I should start a new post, complete with a new title about my Grammy/famous people/too much money rant)  I'm far too lazy to start a new post.  The other half of the truth is that I barely remember how I got to writing this post anyways.

While baby M napped today I got to catch some Pre-Grammy shows and.... Lady Gaga?  Lady, GAG-ME!  She came in, inside an egg, complete with people carrying the egg like she was some kind of Indian Princess.  Her "Creative Designer" participated in an interview and this clearly was not a joke, to them.  I am aware that Lady Gaga is very active in the gay community and she was making a point with her egg and being born and blah blah blah.  But, seriously, how much did all that cost?  For a performance?  I don't know, maybe it's because living an average life, I look at these crazy celebrities and famous people with their money to burn and I complete a full-length eye-roll.  Many celebrities piss their money away on the most ridiculous things, when others in this country struggle to make ends meet and put food in their mouths.  This concludes my rant.

I think I am the whitest white girl to love Eminem.  Always have.  Holla'!!!

  1. Agreed on all and Eminem is just a Midwestern white guy. Gaga is just gaga over fame. We value the wrong things in this country and we should give more press to those doing good for others.
