And so it begins....

For the longest time, well, a couple years, people have been telling me I should start a blog. I post really random, well, I'd guess you'd call it crap, on my Facebook page that is apparently funny to more people than just myself, so that started the blog-starting push. I've sat down a number of times to start a blog, but never even made it past creating a title. What would I title a blog that had no real purpose but to serve as a place other than Facebook for me to essentially just post a bunch of BS, banter, and my judgmental observations of society? I was basically going to be creating another Facebook page. And I couldn't call it Facebook. Mark would be pissed. So, I let it go. I still thought about blogging from time to time, journalism is actually my background, but never could figure out what in the world I'd even blog about. Everyone told me to blog bc I'm funny...but I can't just be funny on cue. The funniness just happens and it's not even ME being funny....I just have really good luck with funny things happening to me, or running into funny people, or being in the right place at the right time. (Hence, the majority of my Facebook posts.) Well today a good friend of mine suggested I start blogging as a kind of therapy for myself. You see, I CrossFit. *cue your really original cult jokes* I'm super hard on myself, I take it way too seriously and I pretty much beat myself up over it to the point where it isn't fun anymore and I debate just quitting every time I'm there. Yep. Truth. But, I haven't quit. Because I love it. I take it seriously. Because I love it. I'm hard on myself because I want to be a bad ass biatch at it. Because I love it. So, POOF blog created. I'm going to use this blog to talk about CrossFit. But that's not all, folks! For just 4 easy payments.... Ok back on track here... The CrossFit psycho head case therapy idea was just the final push to get this thing created. I'm also going to blog random things about random topics. I'm going to use it to complain about first world problems like not being able to find something cute to wear to work and craving cupcakes that I can't have because I'm mildly narcissistic and worry too much about how I look. I'm going to complain about work. I'm going to talk about family. I'm going to talk about friends. I'm going to bitch about bad days. I'm going to cheer about good days. I'm going to share funny stuff Andrew (my manimal husband) does bc he's a space cadet and he's awesome. I'm going to talk about how cute my dog is and how much faster than your dog he probably is. I'm going to share funny postings I find on other sites because funny makes my world go 'round. I'm gonna basically blog about a bunch of CRAP and hopefully someone somewhere can find some sense of humor in it, a way to relate, or just be a cyber ear to listen. So it looks like this "blog" will be a diary....a Daly Dose of Christy Daly. (see how I tied in the title there? genius.) Here we go....

  1. Hi Christy! I'm in the process of creating my recipe blog. I originally named my Instagram "cave cravings". I see that you are using the domain but there are no posts and it seems inactive. I was hoping to possibly use the name if you no longer have an interest in using it! It's a long shot but worth a shot! Thank you :)
