Two’fer Tuesday

What’s Two‘fer Tuesday?  It’s a way to get to know me a little better.  I’ll answer 1 question with two answers…get it?  Two ‘fer…okay, never mind.

When I was started Junior High School (7th grade to be exact), the girls used to pass around notebooks with a question on top of each page, asking things like: “what’s your favorite color?”, “who are you in love with?”.  Very important information for preteen girls to share.  That was before the internet and social sharing (and now sometimes over sharing).  It was so much fun to read bits and pieces about your classmates (I mean girl friends…boys never participated).

Why was it so much fun?  It was a way to get to know one another.  Back in those days if you had the same teen idol (read: Shawn Cassidy and Leif Garrett) and loved the same band you were instantly BFFs (best friends forever, in case your out of touch with the texting lingo).  Bloggers are inherently sharers.   If you blog, you have something to share whether it be technical, political, foodie, family, etc.  Bloggers blog to share.  Most of the time the sharing doesn’t really tell much about the person.

So, I’m reaching back in time, grabbing my notebook of questions and doing a little bit of sharing the old fashioned way (in no sense of order) and sharing it the new fangled way, over the internet.
