Pros:
1. It will keep me in the habit of writing, which honestly, has become one of my least practiced hobbies for the past five years.
2. It will encourage me to be always on the lookout for interesting things about which to blog, or at least think.
3. It will help me to work on my crippling fear of talking to people whom I do not know well (in hopes of blogging about the encounters).
4. It will encourage me to use language beyond the desiccated, official literature I have to consume and generate at work.
5. In some measure, I feel, it will help me with my talking remedy. I do not know yet in what form this may or may not happen.
Cons:
1. I might, quite possibly, lose interest and abandon this pursuit in a couple of months, or even weeks.
2. I write best when I am writing for myself, in my private journals. While blogging, presuming eyes other than mine will be reading my words, I might try too hard or try to sound a way that I am not.
3. I will make a fool of myself.
Here we go, again.
