This, My New Blog

Greetings from a new blog!

Since college, I've blogged casually on Xanga. Apparently, due to financial issues, Xanga is no longer going to be the blog site it once was. Thus, I have decided to jump ship before their July 15 end-date and start a new blog here. I'm waiting to see if I like it.

It's funny, you know. I didn't even want to start that Xanga account. My closest college friends all had them, and I was an English major who didn't really write anything that wasn't required by classes, so my friends encouraged (*cough*demanded*cough*) that I start one. It turned out to be a pretty good way to keep up with a few of my college friends and a chance for me to get my random ramblings out of my head and out into the world (I can feel your gratitude). I never posted regularly, but I did end up with quite a bit there. I have a few regular followers, who I assume will follow me here, and perhaps some stalkers I didn't know about. In all of those cases, welcome! I suppose...

My goal with my blog is not to change the world or educate or gain a million followers. My intent for this blog is to record my thoughts. If you like to share in those thoughts, I'm glad to have you do so. I hope you gain a few laughs, some food for thought, and a bit of randomness for your days (when I actually post, that is).
