Quick note:  Regular readers suggest that this blog is best enjoyed from it's inception...  Have fun!


Okay, you can definitely disregard the previous entry - or, should I say that I took inventory and it's all good.  In other words, I think I may have committed a 'blog foul' because I shouldn't jump on the computer in the middle of the day right after receiving some unwanted news.  No, I think blog entries - who the hell am I to opine about others' styles, intents, and construction???  Let me start that over... I think that MY blog entries are supposed to express reflection and introspection, which dictates that entries necessarily be mulled over and considered before they are posted...  WTF?  What is going on here?  Is my brain staging a coup?


Slow down, sparky, and write what you mean...


Let me talk about the construction of the blog for a brief moment.  I know many people are blogging for various intentions - and I am sure some of those intentions are even clear to the authors.  Me?  Not so sure I know that answer to that query, frankly.  However, what I can tell you about the construction is this:  Most blog entries are written in a stream-of-consciousness manner at the end of a day perhaps two of reflection.  This morning's pronouncement that I'd had my heartbroken was cheap hyperbole - and that has no place in this blog!  Think of it - if I were prone to hyperbole and tall tales, how would you know when I'm employing one of those story-telling devices, or simply reflecting the facts as I recall them?  Perhaps for the first time in my life, I realize the value of credibility.  Perhaps a new disclaimer?  "I attest that the author truly did experience these experiences first hand.  Any similarities to other similar similarities are strictly coincidental and ironic."  Nyah...  Not necessary.  


Well, that's enough about that.  The message for me tonight was "Think before you blog."  D'uh.  You mean I could have skipped the three previous verbose paragraphs and come straight to the point???


What fun is that?

PS - Shout out to Bree:  Good luck on the interview tomorrow!!!!!!
