new year's day might technically be january 1, but some traditions are made to be broken. when i was a kid, the new year started in august or september with the start of school. now that i'm older, my personal new year's day is april 20, when spring is springing and birds are singing. so in the spirit of renewal and growth, i have decided to make some changes to this here blog. namely... i'm actually planning on updating it. (whatWHAAAT?!)
i've tried to decide what kind of blog i want this to be. do i want it to be literary and gorgeous and beautifully-written? of course i do. but if i hold off on posting until i have the brainpower to create something literary and gorgeous et cetera, i will never update. and what is the purpose of a blog if it's never updated? i mean really.
so here's the plan. i am planning on posting every day. this plan may change after a few weeks when i go "what the heck was i thinking," but for right now, this is the plan. but just wait, there's more! there's a schedule to help me think of things to post! oh, this is exciting, isn't it? so here's what you can expect day to day at madam b's emporium of thoughtful thoughts:
sunday: retro movie flashback. on sundays, i will be rewatching and reviewing the "great" films of my early life. this will include movies i was obsessively in love with as an adolescent (such as the mummy) and movies that were wildly popular that i never saw.
monday: life update. this is the day that i'll post updates on my super-exciting life. topics will include: work! friends! family! crimefighting! (okay, i made that last one up.)
tuesday: newsday. i'm obsessed with news, especially weird or interesting articles that pop up in world newspapers. tuesday is the day i'll share some of my favorite articles with you!
wednesday: in the kitchen. in case you haven't noticed, i love cooking and i love sharing recipes. wednesday will be the day i share some of my old and new favorites with you!
thursday: top fiveish. on thursdays, i will share a list of my top fiveish (meaning it could be five or three or ten) list of something. favorite books, favorite movies, least-favorite words, etc.
friday: wild card. the sky's the limit! this could be anything.
saturday: books and biscuits. i actually have another blog. it's located over here. the idea of the blog is to review books and then to provide a recipe of something in the book or related to the book. you may notice that there's nothing there. this is because it is a very ambitious effort, to say the least; however, i'm hoping that i'll be able to get something up every saturday! i'm planning on alternating saturdays-- one saturday will be the review, the next will be the recipe. fingers crossed!
