Some Things and Stuff: Feed My Need

Okay, so blog #2 in so many days here. But don't be proud of me yet. Let's see how long I can keep this thing going.

Truth is, I spent way more time uploading pictures to facebook today than I should have. In fact, I got on yea old blog this morning so that I could write a post about some of our Alaskan adventures and quickly shut it down and opted for facebook instead. Why? Well, I am addicted to comments. Yep. There it is.

I love, Love, LOVE to get comments. I think that is why I love facebook so much. When I post pics on facebook, I usually get lots of feedback. On here? Maybe a comment or two. On facebook it really feels like a back and forth relationship with all who are my friends on there. I can hop on facebook and leave a few minutes later feeling connected with everyone.

Blogworld is oh so different. I do get comments, and I love, Love, LOVE reading those too, but it is somehow different. Here, I never know how many people are reading my blog. Could be 1, could be 100. I really don't know. So being the comment addict that I am ashamed to be, I often choose the medium that will better give me my fix.

And this isn't meant to be a slam against my faithful blog readers at all. It really isn't because I am just as guilty. I blog stalk ALL THE TIME. I read my friends blogs and laugh, cry and sigh along with their little antics and rarely do I comment. Why? I really don't know. Why is it so much easier to comment on facebook? My only guess is that it is the back and forth. If I write a comment, and my friend writes back, I get a notification about it. Yeah, baby. I can quickly hop back on and rejoin the convo stat! Not so much with the blog.

But never you fear. I am continuing on with the blog for the benefits it offers me to rant and ramble as long as I like. Can't really do that on facebook. Facebook is for the short and sweet. And anyone who knows me at all knows I am not known for my ability to say anything with only a few words.

So now, for all my friends who read this and do not have facebook accounts, I will first say: GET A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT!!! And then, I will put up a few pics from our Alaskan summer. At least what we've experienced so far. Oh how much fun we are having!!!
