Newspapers have blogs dont they? Me? Well I started to write a blog simply to take my mind off a terrible relationship and to try and keep positive about moving forward. I just kept going longer than I thought I would. I am no writer by any means but there is something therapeutic in journaling isnt there?Lillyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14597193176450931002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-88547159842203223682008-09-16T01:08:00.000+10:002008-09-16T01:08:00.000+10:00Count me as another person who's entertained the t...Count me as another person who's entertained the thought of blogging for a living. I guess it's an extension of writing a column for a newspaper or magazine... Funny thing is that to make a living from it, it actually may be more achievable for me to do the latter rather than the former (as I already work write for a newspaper)!

Perhaps it was just that you were more confident because you thought you had some extra secret assistance! Well you are the first person to come forward to say they have tried it and it worked. Perhaps I could reconsider. Monkey sweat gland extraction? How romantic - but it is all interesting nonetheless. Oh yes, your lucky friend - there are lots of people no doubt, journalists, designers etc who can work from anywhere. It would be so good. You are a great writer, how about a book??? You must tell us about what you do on tour sometime - I mean the shows etc. That would be interesting.

I don't live in Sydney but near enough (the capital instead). I am moving to Qld at the end of the year so maybe I will get to visit parts you know only too well.

Like SARAH I pictured you all dolled up and out on the town, even wondered if you'd head to King's Cross...isn't that place in Sydney...well, we'll just leave it a that....as you porbably don't live in Sydney and maybe most of your readers don't know about "the cross". LOL LOL<BR/><BR/>I think the company asked you because you are -- like henry said -- SO "charismatic" --- plus you are deliciously outgoing and funny and wild and wonderful. You just draw hoards of people to you like a moth to a flame. <BR/><BR/>The company probably saw a real go getter in you. Which you are, but selectively. LOL LOL What they don't know is that you are a deeply sensitive, wise, insightful, loving, deep, grounded person. You are SO smart that you are actually the sort to make a hoot over their product just as you have here. <BR/><BR/>Bamm! They missed the mark. :)<BR/><BR/>And there is a GREAT distinction that they have completely missed. It is one thing to write about funny things like this and I think it takes a VERY grounded sort of person to do it. And it is quite another for someone to completely believe in everything that comes their way. It's only your open mind that makes you (like me) look at all possible options. LOL LOL <BR/><BR/>SO does it work?? LOLOLOL :) :) <BR/><BR/>Is there any left? LOL LOL :)<BR/><BR/>Okay.

I agree with you that the reason I like blogging now is so I can interact with others, write my own thing, and read stories and funnies, like yours. When I'm blogging, I usually don't pay attention to all the extra things on the sides. I pretty much go straight to the posts to read, comment, and leave. It's a different thing when I'm on-line shopping. I go directly to the business websites and not the blog sites. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again for the laughs.tashabudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17707659728810975773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1339261543193718354.post-91924351688710607042008-09-10T21:36:00.000+10:002008-09-10T21:36:00.000+10:00That's funny!
