After taking a tour of a few other blogs out there, I've noticed that mine is rather plain. Others have personal details and pictures. They are spritely and humorous. Mine is not.
Since I write this mostly for myself, it doesn't bother me, but I can't help but wonder if people would like a more personal touch? If you are reading this for any reason, then you need to know - I'm plain. This blog is a reflection of me. If you want to get to know me, then what you see should be an accurate reflection.
Anecdote: My freshman year in college I had a huge corkboard that I could put posters and fun stuff that reflected my personality. Everyone had tons of stuff pinned to their boards. Mine was blank. Completely. I'm not sure why. Perhaps I liked the austerity of it to contrast with everyone else. Perhaps I was too lazy to do anything. Perhaps I was making a statement. (The lazy theory sounds best.) Finally some friends cornered me about my lack of flair. To which I took a precision screwdriver and threw it across the room to stick in the board like a mercenary hurling a dagger. It remained there and I was never challenged again.
Wanna see if I can still throw a screwdriver?
