FAME (as pronounce by David Bowie)

Imagine my joy when I returned home from our trip to find an email from Mr. Chinchilla.

He chose me as his first interview for his new blog. YEAH!

You can find that interview right here http://mrchinchilla.blogspot.com/!

One day I will be cool enough to link it with a word or something.

Anyway, this interview started my mind-a-thinkin'. Why do I like blogging so much?

Mostly, I enjoy putting down thoughts that would otherwise escape my brain soon. It will help later in life, when I am trying to show my kids that I actually did stuff that was smart and caring. ISH. But an added bonus is the fame. Not Inside Edition or Entertainment Tonight kind of fame. This kind of blogger fame comes from spilling out whatever is on my mind and someone, somewhere bothering to read it and maybe care.

I know that my blog won't be widely read worldround, but it COULD be. I may get four hits a year or a thousand in one day. The fact that someone on another continent might find my words funny, emotional, smart, goofy, etc... makes me happy. They don't have to leave comments, they may never link to me, I may never cross their minds again. I love that I am able to enlarge the circle of people who are exposed to my thoughts. That is really great.

So read my interview with Mr. Chincilla. Just do it. Thanks.
