The Analysis Starts

-

 

The last time I published a blog post was 01/16/2023. At the time, I had come to the conclusion the hours spent writing posts, reading the blog posts of others, and the general ordeal of appearing online in hopes of drawing readers wasn’t for me anymore.

Unwittingly, by leaving the internet, I found myself groping for words more often, wondering what more I could write in the current piece I was working on, and, by and large, losing all motivation before I was even half done with the piece. Writing became an albatross I was having a terrible time lugging around.

Now realizing the negative aspects of my absence from the blogging habit, here I am, once again, stepping into the realm of putting words out there for everyone to see. I still don’t want to deal with all the pageantry of social media, or even bother with comments for the most part. Neither one should be that much of a problem, seeing I’ve never been that popular on the internet anyway.

The experiment begins.

  As I stated in my first post, I doubt I’ll get much traffic and, chances are, not any comments on this blog. I believe the main reason is I’m not selling anything on my pages. According to Intuit MailChimp , “The most common type of blog is the small business blog. These blogs are written to market a business's products or services to prospective customers.” From what I’ve learned through my visits to blog platform websites, this statement is accurate. Approximately fifteen years ago, this utterance wasn’t truth, although the signs that it was headed in that direction were obvious. Back then, the number of person blogs outweighed the business ones. Having a personal blog is hopefully going to self-validate my ability to write; will establish the soundness, accuracy, legitimacy. At least, I’m hoping it does for me. Whether it has that effect on anyone else is of no consequence. Anyway, not at this point in the experiment. I question the strategy of having categories,

    Many years ago, I befriended a woman. To be accurate, she actually befriended me when I showed up without any ties to family or friends. Because I feel that it is wrong to brashly point out people publicly, I'm giving this woman the name, Lizzy, Lizzy Falk. Besides, I don’t want her coming after me. Lizzy didn’t always have the last name of Falk. She started her life out with the last name of Riley. I’m not sure why I’m telling you this right now, but there it is for you to file for a possible later date. Lizzy wasn’t a beautiful woman. Nor was she ugly either. Her dark auburn hair was unduly curly without being kinky. The entire time I’ve known her, I don’t remember seeing her in a dress except for one time. Her normal attire was a man’s t-shirt, blue jeans, and sneakers. The first time I met her, she was sitting at the picnic table on the back deck of a relative’s house. Like me, she was an in-law, but I got the immediate feeling that she considered herself a cut abov
