Since my intended blog lookers are friends and family, there's no need for introductions here.  And for those of you who have done this, then, you understand that creating a blog is weird.  However, I admit to being bad at "staying in touch" and keeping people "up to date", etc. , and that some loved ones may find themselves wondering at times if I am still alive.  At the very least, vaguely curious as what the heck I am up to besides about 5'2".  Well, here is a great way to find out, and it is my wish that this space be used for entertainment purposes.  In addition, I am expecting that this may reflect my own life back to me - nice, neat, and formatted, and upon discovering inevitably that my own story can be a boring read... decide to really do something interesting, just so y' all will stay tuned.  Anyway, I apologize in advance for any midnight rambles that may appear here in the future.
