It has been close to two years since my last blog entry here at the Chicken Mafia. For years, Joyfulchicken has been pestering me to blog, noting that I was one of the founding members of the Mafia. He has even resorted to alluding to my superior, though underutilized, intellect, which he says can be of great boon to blogging. (Ahh yes... the exaggerations and lies of one joyful chicken.)

He did manage to drag me to last Saturday's iBlog4. The event was, um, exciting, especially the back-to-back-to-back discussions on elections and blogging--I got so pumped up that I had to go outside and pace around just to contain my boredom enthusiasm. But I have decided to blog again. I believe the potential is within myself to become an excellent blogger. I just have to believe. (Ahh yes... the exaggerations and lies I tell myself.)

The dilemma that I always had is what to blog about: should I blog about what I like or what readers would like? Hmm... would what I ate for breakfast make a buzz-worthy entry? Hmm... I really had a difficult time choosing between muffin and rice for my Big Breakfast. Hmm....

I want to be an excellent blogger. That means more research and thinking and less "stream of consciousness" BS. Blogging might not be as easy for me as it is for other people, but it is the journey that counts. (Ahh yes... keep telling myself clichés and hope everything turns out right.)

So yes, I have returned. I hope I will stay around longer this time.

P.S. To cater to the male readership segment, I will occasionally post carefully selected female pictures for beauty appreciation at the end of my blog entries. I am still evaluating the female readership segment and would consider posting scantily clad men. But just to be clear... no, I'm not gay.
