An Infrequent Blogger's Tribute to a Blog w/Purpose

Writing a blog is not as simple as so many make it seem. But then again, I'm probably making it harder than it is. So today I thought I'd just try to write something, anything, to get my blog up and off the ground. Last post was really long and winded so I will be brief. I'm trying to break free of my chains to the Infrequent Blogger. I'm inspired by my friends who can blog on a regular basis and enjoy doing so.

As a way of showing my respect to a friend, I'd like to point you all to a blog by a girl I went to high school with. Her name is Megan and she is a Spartan (She goes to Michigan State.) I ran into her back home over Christmas and she told me about this blog she's been keeping. It's her senior writing project and it's really great. She had an idea to have coffee (or tea) with a stranger every week for a year and she would write about her experience along the way. The result is 52 Cups of Coffee. I think it's a brilliant idea. It's really great how it allows for other people's stories to be told. (As opposed to self absorbent blogs entirely about the blogger, i.e. The Life and Times of Nate Rusk). I applaud Megan for her work and for putting herself out there to do something like this. So go check it out and let me know what you think.

Hope to post something again real soon.
