One of our readers, Diane, send us this hilarious Martina McBride Myspace blog.  It is really funny.  I couldn’t just pick out parts to write, so I’ll just post the entire thing.

I’ve started to kind of get into this blogging thing…
Hey everybody,
Okay. So I’m on the bus and here’s what I’m thinking about. As you know, I’ve started to kind of get into this blogging thing. So much so, in fact, that just now I was taking off this face mask thing..you know, the kind that prevents wrinkles and whatnot…and I was thinking, “I should go on and blog about this face mask thing. And how my butt is kinda sore from my workout this morning. And how….”. Then I thought, “What the hell?!”. What is happening to me?
I should back up a little bit. Part of what brought this on was I had a great conversation today with a girl who is helping me with some of this internet stuff. Because, basically I am still learning about it. And I was like, “I’m not opposed to doing it. I just need some direction because basically it’s a little bit like a foreign language to me.” (Okay, my VERY country, cowboy kind of bus driver, Larry, is listening to Leona Lewis as I type this….freaking me out just a little. I mean, she’s cool…but I just had no idea…. ). And she was telling me all about this stuff…and we started talking about Twitter. And she was explaining it to me and then she showed me some of the updates or posts or whatever you call them (see, foreign language) on her phone. And at first I was like, “I can do that…that would be fun.”. Then I said, “I probably need to get me one of those really cool phones, huh?”. She said, “Uh. Yeah.”. Which was kinda like, “Yeah. Duh!”. And then I said, “But here’s the deal. I wanna do this stuff cause I think it’s kinda fun. But if people are checking on their MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, ILike, email, IM’s, and texting…..what does that leave time for? I mean it can become an obsession, right? And I’m just not sure I wanna contribute to that. I want to encourage people to read books, talk on the phone, hang out with their friends (in person!), read to their kids, throw a dinner party…get out there and LIVE! If I start doing all this internet stuff aren’t I just contributing to something that I don’t really agree with in the first place? I mean, then you start THINKING that way….”I think I’ll write about this in my blog.” And is it really even right that now everyone knows that my bus driver Larry listens to Leona Lewis? I mean, now is he gonna have people coming up to him and saying, “so, country boy, I hear you’ve been listening to Leona Lewis? (and I swear to God there was some rap music on before that)…..So, needless to say people, I’m conflicted.
But I might get over it.
Later,
Martina
