I Have Returned

Last week I returned to the East Coast to visit my college and watch friends graduating this year. It was a wonderful trip! Things on the old campus have changed a little in the past year, but mostly they are exactly the same.

I took out friends and former professors, played D&D until 2AM, learned how to play Halo on the X-box, and learned that I like Malibu Rum.

But now I have returned to a steady internet connection:

Let the Blogging Commence!

Blog Reconstruction 2

For all 5 of you who read my stuff - Welcome again!

As you can tell, I've been doing some changes. On the left, there are now links to other blogs of mine. The goal in this was to separate my private blogging (my life and creative stuff) from the "important blogging" (politics, news articles, etc.).

In the blogging workshop that I mentioned before, the facilitator said that a blog should have a set and clear purpose. Readers want consistancy. Clearly, a mish-mash of personal and "important" is not set or clear.

I have also added a more indepth "about me" and a FAQ link.

I am still working on the color schemes for both, so these will often change. I'm sorry. I'm picky and not so much a fan of the limited choices I'm offered. I may have to learn HTML so I can make some changes (yikes!).

Anyway, for those 5 of you reading - any ideas, comments, or suggestions you have about my changes or changes you would like to see would be greatly appreciated!

Either way, I think I'm back. It's been killing me not to blog...

Blog Reconstruction

Greetings readers -

This blog of mine will be undergoing some reconstruction. I took a blogging workshop and learned a few things that I intent to apply to mine. I hope to make my purpose more refined and my subject matter more reader accessible/friendly.

If you have any suggestions or comments, please, let me know! I am still fairly new to this blogging thing and really hope to make mine work.

First Blog

Well, I suppose that technically this isn't my first blog. When I had a MySpace account I practically lived there, blogging about my life, friends, and crazy fucked up romantic run-ins as if people really cared. But then I realized that all I was doing was substituting my real, leather bound, red, engraved journal that I paid good money for...for some online forum in which only my friends could comment on my life. As if their comments gave me some vindication for the actions I made (or didn't). So I moved on to bigger and better things. Like Warbook on Facebook. And now, this blog. A real blog. Guess we'll see how it goes. :-)
