Why I'm not a good blogger

So, I stumbled across a friend's blog recently. You know, someone who makes regular entries and talks about stuff that's happening in their lives.

It got me thinking. I wondered how this person can put all of this fairly unedited stuff online for all to read, including people they know who are mentioned in stories etc. This is mainly because I guess I am a fairly personal and neurotic guy. I can't put too fine an opinion or tell a story of something that happened involving friends for fear of ruffling some feathers in a bad way. So I suppose this means I don't like to be offensive to those I know for fear they will no longer converse with me.

Who knows? I doubt that this blog is very popular, or if anybody I know bothers to read it, but if the possibility of treading on toes is there, I suppose I just can't risk it (which is strangely different to my views on art/entertainment).

So yeah, I guess I'm not really doing anything interesting on my blog because I'm lazy, neurotic, and fear rejection. I might as well just write some form of sanitised account of the news as seen by someone looking through a fly-screen with a shotgun and be liked by conservative Americans.
