Comedy

So, I think it's pretty safe to say that I think I'm funnier than anyone else does. I make myself crack up on an hourly basis... whether out loud or in my head (when I'm consciously trying to have tact or something). And most of the time when I find myself funny it's because I laughed at the absolute WRONG time. Which then makes me laugh harder because, "ah crap. I just laughed while that person was saying something serious." Most of the time this is due to the word associations that happen in my head - the ones that no one else will get because they weren't there. It really is a shame you know.

But what's more of a shame is the fact that I keep finding out about people who are way funnier writers than I will probably ever be (granted... this blog is not meant to be funny, generally. It's just a random conglomeration of my thoughts/quirks/life experiences), and it's starting to really depress me. In the past two weeks I've found myself thinking "why didn't I think of that first?!" Far too often.

I just want people to enjoy my writing on a grander scale... not that I don't love my 15 wonderful and loyal followers. I've just got to brainstorm on how I can make people love me.... or, er, my writing. Cuz here's the thing, people that don't know me personally, usually don't get that I'm being funny. Sad day.

I'm thinking it's time for a more spiritual post soon.
Also, I've been brewing up a "Day in the Life of Raechel Survival Guide".

So, stay tuned!

Maybe you should write a humorous sex and the city type blog. I think that would attract more readers. And allow you to show people how funny you are.

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Next time, warn me when the wallpaper changes. I was not sitting down before loading the page and am now typing from the floor. My tailbone is not pleased. My eyes are, but my tailbone, not so much.
