Maiden Blog Post

Blogging. What the hell is it? I have no idea. Is it journaling? Is it journaling for others to read? Which would perhaps be the opposite of journaling? According to Wikipedia, the source of all of my knowledge:

“A blog (a truncation of the expression weblog)[1] is a discussion or informational website published on the World Wide Web consisting of discrete, often informal diary-style text entries ("posts")”


OK. So, that’s what it is. And if that’s what it is, then that’s what you’ll get. Nothing but discrete, often informal diary-style text entries written by me once a week(ish) for a number of reasons, none of which I seem to quite be able to grasp at the moment. But maybe, together, as a team unit, writer and reader, typer and typee, journaler and journalee, we can figure this out. And if you happen to figure it out before I do, feel free to share your discovery with me, as I am lost as to what the fuck I’m doing. It’s like that game 52 Pick-Up. I’ll throw the cards of a deck up in the air and you tell me how much you hate playing this game. It’ll be fun. For one of us. But maybe, just MAYBE, you’ll have more fun picking up those 52 cards than you had first anticipated. And maybe I’ll have even more fun throwing them.
