Weddingbee...for me?

Today Weddingbee, this totally cute wedding blog and boards, released their newest generation of characters for prospective bees and I am IN LOVE! The theme for this generation is Jungle animals and one of the characters is...wait for it...a SLOTH!!! If you know me at all, you know that I am every bit a sloth! Its not the best quality to have, but I've come to accept it. Another character that would fit me perfectly is the zebra, you know, because of the whole black and white thing...get it? So anyway, I'm thinking about applying to be a wedding blogger on their site. The only problem is I need to start blogging about my wedding! One of their requirements is that prospective bees are blogging about their wedding process and I have not been at all! Its hard because pretty much everything at my wedding is out of my hands! The only things that we got to pick were the photographer, my dress and we swapped out goat for steak on our dinner menu. (You're welcome!) I also plan on making my own centerpieces, but that is hardly anything worth blogging about. Ugh. I guess I can post blog about some of our wedding process and try to submit those. What do my 2 readers think?

maybe this could work...

Today I was reading the wonderful Heather B. Armstrong's blog, Dooce, and entertained the thought of becoming a professional blogger. Although this would mean that I would actually have to put much more effort into writing, write about stuff that people other than myself and my one reader (thanks Char!) care about, and well I can't think of a third thing. This also means that I will have to recruit more than one follower...does this mean that I will have to post my blog on Facebook? Because, honestly, I don't think I could do that...I mean, I'm not writing about anything important. Maybe if I was reviewing something or something...bah. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

ETA: I am totally going to buy this book: No One cares What you Had For Lunch: 100 Ideas For your Blog, by Margaret Mason...maybe it will help.
