first blog

when i was a little kid, i made an attempt to start writing in a journal / it was completely random / i didn't find it therapeutic or relaxing or like a nice recapitulation of my day or any of that bs / i think i saw it on doug / doug had a journal / he tended to personify it / he'd sit down after a long day and he'd just vent to his damn journal which might as well have had a name / in my opinion, if you're personifying your "journal" and talking to it as you would an analyst, you're either suffering from a case of schizophrenia or your cartoonist is / anyway, when doug wrote in his journal, his voice echoed throughout his room with what he was writing / (not too private if you ask me) / i think a blog would have suited him better (or a straightjacket) / 

anywho, i went to cvs and bought a tiny spiral bound notepad / it had that black and white speckled cover which reminded me of fruity pebbles (but not fruity) / i brought it home and i immediately began writing in it / (more like chocolate + vanilla pebbles) / i wrote about people i saw on the street / i'd go in the bathroom and take a dump, and then i'd go into my room and write about how the toilet was clogged / it was some intense shit (pun completely intended)

i'm getting off topic though / i wrote in my journal all day for that one day / after that i never posted again / my prediction is something like that will happen with this blog /
