Blog-Hunting

Through my pain-wracked insomnia, I've been randomly visiting a number of blogs, looking for an elusive something. I wish I could tell you what I was looking for... maybe just a frequently updated blog that spoke to me and told me stuff I don't already know. I found a lot of the same old stuff. People talking entirely about themselves, people talking entirely about politics, people using profanity instead of creativity. There is nothing more boring than an angst filled 20-something's blog with a barrage of swear words and little else. Still, I found a couple in the ... three hours I've been at it. And it's distracted me mostly from the pain. Maybe I'll even be able to get to sleep now.

I found an interesting blog on life in Japan, but it hasn't been updated in awhile, as the blogger is "home" in New Hampshire. Network Edge is a good tech blog, I'm just not geeky enough to be its audience. I adore the description of Pointy Sticks: "Watch an ordinary house-wife melt down and poke at people with her knitting needles". It almost makes me imagine my mother blogging. Then there's Mr. Hassle's Long Underpants, a blog by a "female emergency medicine resident training at a rural Level 1 trauma center" parts of which you should not read if you are eating or have just eaten.

Seen any good blogs lately?
