Resurrecting the Blog for Lent (no pun intended)

It's been a while and it's been far too long. I haven't written in this thing since summer, and I used to write here all the time. Sigh. Like a lot of people, I got caught up in getting my early 20s life together and unfortunately, this blog fell by the wayside.

But, faithful readers (and by faithful readers I mean Laura and my mom), I was struck by blind inspiration while at Borders today and decided that my Lenten promise will be to write in this blog every day for 40 days. I mean, I'm practically like Josh Hartnett in '40 Days and 40 Nights' except I'm not giving up sex and I'm a girl. So in other words, not at all, but it's the only pop culture Lent reference I can make, so go with it.


So, we must set up some rules for this thing, as with all blog challenges. The first and most obvious is I must post an entry every single day, including Sundays. Taking Sundays off is for the weak. Also, the blog entries must be about 300 words long unless it's a list entry, like '10 Things' in which all the lists must include 10 things (obviously). If I miss a day (heaven forbid) then my faithful readers can challenge me to do something (within reason).

Alright, so what should you all expect to see? Well, I'll be bringing back the '10 Things' as well as my Secret Shames. Maybe I'll even come up with a new segment.

I also understand that some people reading this may have never come across my blog before. Well, if you look to your right there is the archives as well as the tagged subjects (and there are some handy links above as well). Take a moment to familiarize yourself if you would like. Also, feel free to comment! I like to hear from people. Though, now that I've asked you to, I'll probably get one comment during the 40 days of Lent.

Alright everyone, t-minus five days until we go 40 in a row. Ready?
