New Frontiers

Well now, I think I'm just a little freaked out by this blog thing. I've been pondering the idea of starting one for a couple months now, and asked for the thoughts of my boyfriend and a friend. But I still didn't expect to actually set up a blog today, much less writing a blog post. I've no real purpose for this blog other than to let friends of mine know what's going on in my small world. I regularly check the blogs of a couple of friends, one of whom I never actually talk to on the phone, and very rarely even email. But I get to find out what's going on in her world by reading her posts, and it makes it easy when I do see her every couple of years to know what she's been up to.

Though I really like politics and spiritual issues, neither are meant to be the focus of this website. For one thing, writing too much about politics (at least from a partisan perspective) could very well get me fired. But also because I'm not really interested in writing a blog and expounding upon some of my "Deep Thoughts." I mean, really, I don't think my thoughts on political, social, ore religious issues are all that interesting to the larger public, assuming anyone who doesn't know me personally ever wanders upon this blog. Not to say I'll never mention any of these things, just that they aren't the purpose of this little spot on the Internet.

So here I am, trying to figure out what exactly to write about, instead. Talk about intimidating! I guess I'll talk about my life, my friends and family, my great city and state (Louisville, KY), and anything else that comes to mind. Bear with me as I figure all of this out. I promise, there will be more stuff on here, eventually (like a picture or two). In the meantime, thanks for paying attention!
