| The birth of blogging |
| Thursday, September 21, 2006 |
So far I've had a few comments about how no one expects me to have a blog. According to them I'm not the kind of person to have a blog. Normally I would agree, but recent events have changed that, obviously. So I've been thinking about what makes a person blog. What mysterious force of nature compels someone to sit down at their computer and type out their innermost thoughts, laying it all out for the world to read? Is it a sudden burst of inspiration? Or the overwhelming need to share our thoughts with the world? My friends, I have the answer and for me the answer is simple.
Boredom
Yes my friends, the answer is simple, I'm bored. If neccessity is the mother of invention, then boredom is the father of my illegitimate blog. I blog now 'cos I'm bored. I'm stuck in the lab, often in the clean room and human interaction is kept to a minimum. Don't get me wrong, my other colleagues are great people, but it has to be said that we pretty much keep to ourselves these days. Everyone is engrossed in their own research and we don't go out much. I've pretty much spent most of the day without saying more than 10 sentences on average. I'm not really complaining, just a frank statement. So there it is! Mystery solved. I still do hope that even though its mainly written out of boredom, my blog still makes a compelling read and that it inspires you to greater heights.
ps. you know that void in your life that you have? it can be filled by simply leaving comments in my blog. Seriously.
