What Kind of Blogger Am I??

Lately I've been doing a lot of "bloggy" soul searching. I'm trying to find my niche. I am not a review blogger. Yes i love doing reviews and giveaways but I also want content on my blog. I am not a mommy blogger. Yes I am a mom and I blog but I don't want to be categorized as such. When I first started this blog, I wanted to be a humor blog. I wanted to be funny and crass and blunt and vulgar. Why? Because that is how I am in real life.

Somewhere along the lines all that got lost. My true self does not come out on my blog. I know this. People who know me know this. My fellow Momdotters have told me this. Believe me, in person i am much more fun and outgoing. But you see, when I write I don't write the way I talk. Nope. I write as if I'm telling a story. I always have. I sit here and think about what I'm writing and what I want to say and how to say it. I'm doing it right now...instead of letting it all just flow out.

It's more than just what type of blogger I am, I want something more, bigger. And I'm not talking the next big review or that I want to be an A-list blogger. I want to be part of something. I want people online to know who I am. But I want something bigger than just my blog. And I'm not even sure what it is yet, but I'm hoping that if/when it falls into my lap that I will recognize it as my breakthrough opportunity.

So this is me. Nicole. Miss Blondie. I am no longer going to hold back. I'm not going to be afraid of offending anyone...if I offend you consider this my apology in advance. I'm going to be fun, crazy, blunt, sarcastic, crass, vulgar, silly, emotional at times, and real. I'm going to curse. I'm going to have reviews and giveaways. You're going to see me Vlog. I'm going to be real. I'm going to be me.

Buckle your seat belts and get ready for the RIDE!!

Me and My Bright Ideas

Seriously, what the hell was I thinking when I signed up for Avon's 2-Day walk for breast cancer?!! Its 40 freakin miles! Apparently I thought I was Super Mom and that it would be a walk in the park. HA! Well, yesterday I went for a walk in the park and walked 6 miles as part of my training. Today, I can barely friggin move! Every muscle on my body aches. No lie! I didn't even know I had muscles in certain spots that could ache! How in the hell am I going to walk 26.2 miles in one day and get up to do 14 the next? And sure it's for a great cause and I'm all for doing things for good causes but man! My walk is almost a month away and this is how I feel after only doing 6 miles...I can't wait to see how I feel after 40!
