Someday...

Someday I'l get this figured out. Someone actually found me, and I still haven't fugured out how to find myself. I suppose that shouldn't really bother me. There's lots of things in the world (people, too) that I haven't yet figured out. I keep thinking that I have lots of time to do that, but the truth is, I probably don't. Time seems to be slipping past me at an increasing rate. I wish I could step up my appreciation of the world around me at that same increasing rate. I'm working on it.
Tomorrow I travel half way across the country by car. I'll try not to miss anything. (right!) Ok, I'll try to absorb more than the last time I took this route...probably more realistic.

Maybe I'll have somethingt to write about when I get back. Maybe no one will care...but maybe someone will. I hope so.

A first time for everything

This is something I've toyed with for a while, now, and a new friend inspired me to take the initial step, one that is taking much longer to do than I thought. Not because of anything internal, but rather because of the external forces associated with my learning curve. Just getting this set up has taken much longer than I thought, and I haven't even dealt with daunting task of figuring out where I'm going with this now that I've set it up.

Oh, well, you've got to start somewhere, right? The journey of a thousand miles begins with the first step, blah, blah, blah... probably not the first overused quote I'll toss out, but at least it's apropos. (That doesn't look like it's spelled right, but I checked it out.)

It seems to me that this might be a good forum to let some of the stuff that's been cooped up in my head seep out into the real world. Whether anyone else cares or even reads it...now that's a whole 'nother thing all together.

Well, there it is, folks. (for anyone who finds this) Stay tuned for whatever dribbles out of the pipeline of thoughts seeping from my (not yet) atrophied brain. And thanks, Erin, for helping me to open the valve.
