I'm finally giving in to the whole blog thing. People have always asked why I don't have a blog, and I've told them the thruth which is that:
a) it sets my ideas up for being stolen...again, and
b) why give away my ideas for free when i can sell them im a book (sorry, but a girl's gotta eat), and finally
c) my boss, clients, etc. can find out everything i don't want them to know and more
that said, i feel like i should have one since everyone else does. Only I'm not going to talk about anything original or interesting because i don't want anyone stealing my ideas. so it's gonna be pretty much a self-centered and shameless promotional blog about QLC. I'm calling it QLCLOG: the Quarterlife Crisis Blog.
First i'm going to talk about something really mundane: the weather. The cold isn't gone yet here in d.c. and i'm thrilled. I love bundling up in my sweaters, scarfs, gloves and hats.
Everyone who knows me knows my feelings about the cold. Some think I'm crazy. Personally, I hate it when people equate warm with "nice" - that's a preference, not a fact. I can't stand sweating. I can't stand my hair frizzing out in the humidity just after I've bothered blowdrying. I love the cold crispness of late fall and winter. I love seeing my breath in the air. I love curling up on the couch with a cup of hot cocoa. I love sticking my tongue out to catch the snowflakes as they fall.
Maybe on my next post I'll talk about something qlc-related...

Hi Abby,
Congratulations on joining the blogosphere! I can relate to your concerns, but I think you'll see that the blog will be a good vehicle for promoting your books and your consulting practice. You're the original source on the Quarterlife Crisis phenomenon, and people should hear what you have to say!
