In the beginning

My first post. It's been 4 years.

My first weblog. Why did I create one? Because I thought I had a lot to say on interesting subjects. As I sit here with my laptop, I can think of nothing to say. Nothing. Zip. Part of the reason is I'm watching LSU spank Arizona. Another part is I've read so many blogs lately that I'm blog-bleary and can't remember if these are my thoughts or their's. And finally, does anyone care what I say? That thought alone almost kept me from creating this blog, but then I thought, who cares?

I'm doing this because I want to keep a record of my thoughts, concerns, stories, musings, etc, and if y'all find it interesting, great. If not, oh well. At least I'll have fun putting these thoughts out there. I've read some great blogs over the past few weeks and if I can be half as interesting as they are, then I'll feel good about this.

The other good thing about putting out a weblog is that I could justify the purchase of a wireless access point for my little home network. Now I can sit in the living room, watch TV, and blog on my laptop. Sure, I could have bought a long cable to do the same thing, but then I couldn't brag about having my own wireless network. Yes, I'm a geek...I know. The ol' Jewish Mom wanted a doctor, she got a computer geek instead. More to come.
