Dear Blog,

I’m sorry that I haven’t been more attentive to you lately. I’ve thought about you a lot to be sure – how could I not? We’ve been together for a long time (aside from that break – and despite what you say, we were on a break). And so I feel that I owe it to you to be honest with you.

I’ve met someone else.

Actually, two someone elses.

Friends introduced me to the first site. I think you met the site once at a mixer, actually…kinda weird, huh? Its name is Facebook.

Before I got to know Facebook, I’d judged it harshly. I thought it was for teenagers and laughed at my friends for their obsession with it. But one day, I was bored and thought I’d check it out. I mean, if all of my friends (and I mean ALL of them) loved it – and they’re fun, cool, mature people – then maybe I should give it a shot. See what all the fuss about. So I tried it.

And now I’m obsessed, too.

But it wasn’t enough for me. After the friend requests died down and the best photos were posted, I needed more. And that’s when Ruminations came into my life.

I’ve been long-time fan of its dad, comedian Aaron Karo, so I recently visited Ruminations to post my own observations about the absurdities of daily life. It has become addictive. It’s like blogging, but faster. Easier.

I know this must hurt to hear, but it’s the truth. We never explicitly said that we were exclusive, so please remember that if this upsets you.

Okay…I guess I’m gonna get going. We’ll talk again soon.

P.S. - If you want to find me over at Ruminations, I'm posting as "TaterTotz". I started as LiberalBanana but I didn't want people judging my posts based on my political leanings, so I created another username in honor of my youngest pup...
