So, some of you might be wondering about the name. You might even think, "Wow. You wrote one entry about a Couch Pouch... But is the entire blog about this thing?" The answer is no. I can't write that much about any one topic. That would just be silly.
The thing is, I'm not the world's most clever bestower-of-names. I sat around for days (and by days I mean at least a solid 20 minutes... which is difficult for someone who is naturally rambunctious, making it feel like days) trying to figure it out. I thought about things like, "Super-Awesome Funny Stuff" or "I'm SO Funny--Read Me!" But those all seemed a bit presumptuous. I don't actually think I'm that funny. I figure most people who read this are going to be the people to whom I say, "Hey, please read this. It's for Journalism 101, and we have to do it, and our professor is looking to see if we're 'interesting enough to generate comments', so please make him think you find me interesting, and comment on my blog." And let's face it. That doesn't make me anything that the discarded blog titles would imply. If anything, it makes me slightly pathetic and quite desperate.
Anyhoo, short story made long, I figured that the majority of the time I'd actually be working on this blog, would be when I don't want to do "real" homework. You know? Those mental breaks, in which you sit around with something like "Say Yes to the Dress" on in the background as you work on something a little less brain-sucking... I'd be sitting on my couch or bed, potentially snuggled up in my way-cooler-than-a-Snuggie (that's right, I said it!) Couch Pouch. And then I figured, "Hey... Why not?" It would at least give me the first entry... The Legend of the Couch Pouch.
Plus, any potential readers would also probably be lounging around, looking for a distraction. So there it is. A completely unnecessary explanation about the name of my blog. I just wasted time that you can never get back. I win.
