The Beginning

I've finally given in to blogging.

In middle school, everyone had a xanga or a livejournal or some other online medium of expression. Older readers may not remember this, as I think the trend began and ended swiftly. Or maybe it was a regional phenomenon special to growing up in the slow pace of the Shore. Regardless, I was a xanga queen.

I have to be honest:  I stumbled across my xanga login information recently and went to the page to take a look at my writings. After reading and laughing hysterically at several pages of what seemed like endless teenage angst, I promptly deleted the site. I wonder now, in starting this blog, if a future 40 year old version of myself might re-discover it and laugh at what I now find to be so important.

Nevertheless, I blog.

  1. There are so many reasons to blog. If entertainment is your goal (as it is for me) then embarrassment is essential. I look forward to reading.
