First of all, it's surreal that I think I have enough to say to be able to start a blog. After all, who cares what one more 35 year old mom thinks? (Besides advertisers of products for tweens, who know that we moms hold the strings on those little hello kitty purses. They care.) And second of all, ephemera is "transitory written and printed matter not intended to be retained or preserved. The word derives from the Greek, meaning things lasting no more than a day." Thank you, wikipedia.
Don't you think that blogs and status updates and tweets are our generation's ephemera?? If that's not surreal, I don't know what is.
I love to read others' blogs, but can't remember more than a handful of posts that stuck with me longer than a few days. That has not stopped me from reading them and enjoying them, crying, laughing, snorting, and pondering for some little while. So, I'm jumping in, too. Cannonball!!
