Phases

....Cycle Day 23....
Dear Blogger World,
      I go through phases, with pretty much... everything.  I didn't notice it so much before I moved away from my parents house.  I was busy with other things and other people.  But now that I'm married and I have so much free will to do what I want... That and I've got a husband who pays so much attention to me... I/we have noticed that I go through what we like to call "phases".  A good example of this phases thing is how often my taste buds change. 
      I once heard that your taste buds change once every 7 years.  If only that were true for me...  It's like my mood changes.  For a couple weeks I might be in the mood for chicken.  We'll have chicken almost every night.  I just fall in love with chicken!!!!  But then...... it tastes funny.  After a couple times of me thinking it tastes funny... I'm not interested in chicken at all for a month or two.  Then a little while later I fall in love with something new!  Steamed broccoli is the best thing in the world!!!!  But... not anymore.  Now I like bi-color sweet corn on the cob.  Who knows how long that'll last.
      It's not just foods that I change my interest in so often.  It's like that with what types of tv shows/movies I want to watch.  What kind of books I want to read, or even feeling like reading books at all.  My hobbies change often when I have the time for hobbies.  Crocheting, sewing, making beaded bobby pins, baking cookies, chatting online, playing computer games, listening to the radio..... 
      Blogging?  That's also one of those things.  Now when I get into something I really get into it.  I'll be on here every day.  All I can think about is my new online friends and how they are doing.  I'm always thinking of new things I can blog about, and I do so often.  It's my new obsession, it's fun, it's exciting, hello blogger world here I come!  But then... There's so much to keep up with!  Why did I choose to follow so many people?  And I feel like I have to go back and read everything I've missed.... every time I get on here.  And some posts I'll just skim over so I can get to the more recent ones.  It's awful!  So.... I just close the window and decide I'll read up on them later.  lol.  Sorry!
      I've made some friends in an online chat room.  I'd go in and chat every day for weeks.  And then.... I'd disappear for a few months.  With... no warning.  I was just gone.  When I come back it's nice to see all the usernames I remember, and I want to know if they still remember me.  We ketch up on how things are, realize just how long it's been since we've talked, and then they might get to chat with me a lot for a little while.  Or I'll decide I'm not really in the mood to get back into chatting with them every day and they'll see me again... sometime later.
      Anyways.... I was never good at keeping a diary while growing up.  Several times I tried.... but it never really worked out.  I just thought I'd explain why me blogging is so... consistently inconsistent.  :-)
      By the way, since I don't blog very often it's ok if I'm very wordy... right?
