Here goes!

I have a love/hate relationship with blogs.  I don't quite know what to say a lot of the time.   had one when I was in my late teens and I just used it as a "oh woe is me" whining place.  I don't want to have that again.  I don't need an excuse to start thinking of myself as a victim of life.  I'm not.  I'm phenomenally privileged with all I've been allowed to do and experience in my life so far.

On the other hand, I need a way to connect with other people.  I tend to isolate myself from the world.  The reasons are many and varied and I'm not sure I know all the reasons.

The plan, for now, is to post my thoughts and my day-to-day adventures.  Maybe once I feel like this is substantial and not whiny, I'll share it and people will have a way to stay in touch with me and be connected to my life.  That way I won't feel quite so alone.  We'll see.  Can't hurt, right?
