After five years of calling this blog "SoCalScribe's Diatribe," I thought I'd welcome the new year with a bit of a name change. Since 2013 was the year I started using my real name on this site rather than the handle SoCalScribe, I figured I should update my blog accordingly. Unfortunately, there weren't a lot of "j" words to choose from, but I got a little help from Mr. T, who never fails to disappoint.
Calling my blog "SoCalScribe's Diatribe" was always kind of an ironic, tongue-in-cheek decision because I'm pretty sure there are few (if any) actual blog posts that could be characterized as forceful and/or bitter... and similarly, I thought "Jibber-Jabber" - in addition to being an amusing nod to a classic 80s television show - would continue the tradition of being a little ironic. According to Urban Dictionary, "jibber jabber" is defined as "useless words," "nonsense," "gibberish," and, "what really irritates Mr. T." Hopefully my blog is none of those things (especially not something that irritates Mr. T!) and the title will remain tongue-in-cheek and mildly amusing when people see it pop up on their favorites or in my newsfeed.
So yeah, new year, new name for the blog... and hopefully a newfound commitment to blogging more often! I've got some great ideas for "Blog Harbor"  ; hopefully it'll inspire me (and everyone else) to write some great posts in 2014! |
