Challenge Day 3: Meaning of my Business Name? Let's go with Meaning of My Blog and Facebook Names..

Oh I have business names in my pocket, don't you worry. The Facebook Page is Ali's Anthem, which came mostly from my music obsession. I've always felt I have had way more spiritual experiences through music than in church even. Perhaps that's blasphemy but it is what it is. The blog name is a play on words from a song I like and my sister has always joked about making a celebrity mag called "Diatribe" where we collect celebrity stories where they complain about mundane every day things that we have to deal with ourselves on a regular basis as regular people.

Now I want to shift this challenge to something more fun: YOU GUYS I JUST FOUND MY COMMENTS SECTION. There are 7 years worth of comments in there! Dang! So I want to thank all my readers in more ways than one, because you guys rock!

The thing is, there is such a laziness to me in such weird ways. I'm a very active person. In some ways I probably have ADD and my anxiety makes me obsessed with certain degrees of cleanliness and order but if something doesn't JUMP at me or present itself as easy to navigate, I won't always seek it out. So I'd seen a comment or two back in the day but as life has taken over I've definitely lost touch of little things.

In the world of Facebook and Instagram commentary is a big deal so why not here? Maybe there was a part of me that didn't want to read in case it was negative. Or maybe I just knew the select few that would rally.

I don't know that I consider blogging to be much of a business for me yet. My end goal is to absolutely write real things someday. I once had an epic dream for a music and food based magazine. I thought it would be fun to have my husband create recipes and wine pairings and I could have columns about the music to listen to while eating like "Pinot Noir and pasta requires Michael Buble to complete the evening." I'm ironic like that.

I also wanted to do some crazy romantic fiction because never in my life would anyone expect that from me and I bet that's a money-maker like Danielle Steele! I don't know about branding myself or having a real business name unless it came with a store front. And those you'll never get out of me. 

But if you do have suggestions for blog names, please comment! I know how to find them now!
