I have heard that a lot of bloggers allegedly participate in something called the Thursday Thirteen. I’ve recently been turning this idea over in my head and considered jumping on that bandwagon myself. Lists? I love lists! Sharing pointless details about myself? I can so do that! Having a default topic to post about at least one day a week? Sounds fucking fabulous to me! But thirteen things sounds like, well, a shitload. Some thirteens would be no problem. For example, I can easily come up with thirteen songs that make my heart soar, or thirteen ways to piss me off to no end. But other thirteens would be significantly more difficult to enumerate, especially if I have to do it every week.
So, as with so many things in my life, I’m taking the lazy, half assed approach and starting my own “Thursday Thren” feature instead. Perfect. (“Thren” is an obvious hybrid of the numbers “three” and “ten”.) I will, depending on my ambition that particular week, blog about a number of semi-related items, ranging anywhere in number between three and ten, in a list format. I realize that if I were truly to do this half way that I should actually go with a “Saturday Six-and-a-Half” feature, but coming up with something clever to be the “half” each week sounds even more daunting than the full thirteen. So Thursday Thren. Presumably I’ll continue this each week until it’s no longer interesting or amusing to me.
And now, stay tuned throughout the rest of the day for the first edition of (drum roll PLEASE!)…..”The Thursday Thren!”
Oh. And P.S. peeps: Also, in the spirit of lazyness, any suggestions on topics for the Thursday Thren feature would most certainly be appreciated and quite possibly considered for future editions of said feature.
