Over the previous days I have taken the liberty of writing for my own personal reasons on topics that interested me.
Is that not what a blog is?
According to my online dictionary, which is a Merriam Webster and updated regularly I would think, the words blog and blogger do not exist since they do not show up anywhere in it.
Confused.
How on earth have I gotten here; when this venue does not exist?
Fascinating.
Where can I go to find out what the heck I have been doing here for the last 33 days?
I know, I bet that blog and blogger are made up words, aha that is what my blog was about just yesterday... words that have been created with purpose in mind for those of us with imagination!
More research into this anomaly is needed!
So I carry on...with trying to find the two non words, actually three if you count the act of blogging; in my American Century Dictionary, and guess what?
Not there either, curiouser, and curiouser?
Another dictionary this one electronic, American Heritage Dictionary Personal Edition, and hand held, a modern appliance you would think would contain modern words and or terms...not there either.
Crazy!
What am I doing?
I am writing here on a blog, and I am called a Blogger for doing this action yet... I exist so this must exist, right?
Existential?
No, the above word only seems to refer to human existence in the 20Th century according to the electronic dictionary; i.e. number two example above.
And if I recall we are in the 21st century for 8 1/2 years now.
So... if blogging does not exist does that mean that I too do not exist?
Something to think about...sort of like the tree falling in the forest if no one is there to hear it fall does it make a sound?
What? Of course it does... just no one's there to hear it!
Ridiculous!
And again it was a quiet day at the Tobi domicile so this is why I am composing nonsensical literature that will be burnt in my own history for eternity.
I do wonder though when will this blog, blogger, blogging become a part of our legal words, dictionary emblazoned; so that we can tell others like children and those not yet born to this earth that they do really, really exist!
Finally, in my opinion I will now give you my definition of a blog: an online diary or snippet of one's life's experiences or any damn thing they care to write about electronically for all the world to see if they so desire, and the one who does it is a Blogger, logically, and when you do it regularly it is called blogging! TA DA!
Updates: Pooling, swimming that is was and is being done by the above Blogger for three days, but not in a row.
Speaking My Mind is about: Tobi, who is a middle aged, no, oh all right a slightly over the hill woman with all the imperfections that go with that, and this concerns her daily life's perceptions and experiences.

Blog - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A blog (an abridgment of the term web log) is a website, usually maintained by an individual, with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse chronological order. "Blog" can also be used as a verb, meaning to maintain or add content to a blog.
