Long Words For Simple Concepts

Trochaic Tetrameter

A hamster Journeys at midnight
It's stubby tail wiggles with glee
He is raring for a big fight
I wonder if he's coming for me
With malace in his face growing
there can be no good outcome now
I see that I have always known
Tonight will be the night I die.


Anapestic Tetrameter

The fight was set for tonight and I just can't look
The hamster is coming to reclaim lives I took
He's advancing on me rapidly and very hard
I'm quite honestly surprised by the lump of lard
Oh dear he's quite close now to eating all my face
I wonder if I still have that tiny bottle of mace
He's on me now and there is not much left to do
I guess there is no more time left to stage a coup
I beg of thee dear maiden hamster to spare thee
I always did hope you did really Truely love me

Blogging About Blogging: Blogception, we have to go deeper

Blogging is a sort of foreign reach of the internet to me. But it really all depends on what you count as blogging. To me Twitter updates and Facebook statuses could all be considered blogging, assuming you say more than "going to eat lunch". If you do count that than I guess I blog a ton. I've always had an interest in perhaps bloggin one day, but it feels vaugely narcissistic to expect anyone to want to read it. Who would be interested in someone with a life not any more interesting then their own. What would I even blog about? But I digress, self asteem issues aside, blogging seems fun, and I'm excited to do it.
