I couldn't sleep. It didn't help that "my" mosquitos were getting high on insect repellant and were trying to start a party...with me. But, as I tossed and turned and scratched and thought, I realised that I'm a girl with A LOT on her mind. Let's put things into perspective: I'm getting married in 6 months! And it took a sleepless night (and some reckless mosquitos) to make me realise that I need a place to put my thoughts, because they are literally taking over my mind.
I couldn't use facebook - I don't want everyone I know hearing what's going on in my head. Let's face it, my relationship status has not changed from "In a relationship" and it will be staying that way for quite a while. I'm not a huge fan of twitter and have way too many thoughts for a limited post in which I must try to strategically (and wittily) place 'at' and number signs. I can't keep up with the diary thing and as old-fashioned as I am, it's 2012. Your personal thoughts are not your own. They are the fuel that keep other net-friendly insomniacs going through the night...and day.
So, I have turned to blogging. A world I've never been a part of, but ever the interested and envious and despite having MUCH to talk about over my 27 years, I have chosen now to seek acceptance in this world. For me...for you...for any reason really. But mainly so my mind can be less full and I can sleep in peace.
