Blog? Why not call it a write up on myself?

Can someone tell me briefly where the word "blog" comes from?

Dear reader,

I am going to give you the low down on myself for a moment in list form.

- looking for a job
- sticking to a raw vegan diet
- (trying to) play more music
- waking up in the morning
- exercising daily
- feeling better than before/less than great
- still yearning for more... especially a profound connection with the other beings
- currently reading Vonnegut short stories
- current musical obsessions: Van Dyke Parks - Song Cycle & Mayo Thompson - Corky's Debt to His Father
- looking for beauty in everything, mostly failing to really find it
- finding out that a real sense of necessity drives most everything
- I still just want to be a creative genius, and am always frustrated that I'm not
- I still know that I am a creative genius
- I still hate my own arrogance and would rather find a nice hole to crawl into most of the time.
- I don't like being summed up
- My accomplishments mean nothing to 7-11

I don't find this list to mean much, or to be accurate really. I guess I will keep trying to find myself... assuming that there is anything to find.

  1. a post a month is not enough. get overly involved with yourself. make yourself the center of the world for a while. everything shall revolve around David. the most profound connection I find with other beings is our distance and differences. that is what makes us seperate beings. and don't forget to DEFJAM!
