Figuring out how to blog (when you have no short term memory)

OK, this is my first vent.  I guess the first thing I need to decide is:  what constitutes a vent and what constitutes a spew?  Or is this even important?  This is the way I look at it:  a vent is a mild to moderate complaint and a spew is when something makes me so mad, if I don't let it out voluntarily, it will come out anyway against my will and usually in a totally inappropriate place and perhaps with a bit of salty language!

Back to the vent.  I just hate it when the other kids are smarter than me!  I'm talking about technology.  Just as soon as I think I've learned a few things and think I'm catching up, BAM, some other gadget comes along that makes me feel all old again and behind the times.  Just writing this vent makes me feel old. - I can remember manual typewriters for corn sakes!  I'm almost ashamed to say, I know what DOS was.  My first computer screen was a little old tiny TV screen! I had to walk to school in 5 feet of snow and it was uphill both ways and I pushed my handcart tied to my mule.... OK, that last one was a lie (but my kids believe it).

So, this is my blog for all of you who like to complain about anything and everything, but are polite enough not to want to annoy your spouse or children or your dog, etc.  This is the right place! (for venting and spewing!)  I may even have contests when I figure out how to manage my blog.  I want you....to post on my blog.  Send me your tired (complaints) your poor (spelling).  Stand up for your right to complain.  Make it loud, make it proud.  Let's keep it fairly civil, but you can say just about anything you want about career politicians, because they deserve our wrath.

  1. Hey girl! I about spit out my drink when I read your title and first blog post!!! A place that it is okay to vent and spew!!! I have had my blog for years but for the last months I have been pretty absent. The reason? I didn't want my family and friends to read my vents and spews!! That is all I have had lately!!! Maybe I can spew over here!!!!

    Love you! Rosie
