Blogger On Blogging

Someone recently pointed out that using blog as a verb was a head-slapping embarrassment. I thought, “Really? I do that all the time, and I’m not embarrassed at all.” In fact, upon thinking about it, I realized that I use "blog" / "to blog" in a variety of ways. Here are some examples:

Noun: "This is my blog." (duh)
Verb: "Yeah, I blogged him." (wrote about ‘him’ on my blog)
Adjective: "That new bar - it's super bloggy." (worth blogging about)
Adverb: "I'd describe my Valentine's Day as bloggily uneventful." (so utterly lame, possibly worth blogging about)
Identity: "Bloggers, Unite!" (blogger pride)
Way of Life: "Give me blogging, or give me death." (first amendment and all…)

I'm just sayin...
