So It Begins....

For many, many moons I have thought about this- this online diary of sorts, putting my thoughts out there for the world to see.  This may or may not prove to be a good thing.  For one, my thoughts are not always that interesting, but when they are- boy oh boy, you do not want to miss that! Secondly, I am the most computer illiterate person that I know.  You'd think that I was a 75 year old Social Security recipient who had never even heard of one of them fancy contraptions- the computer- until I was well out of my child bearing years and past the prime of my life.  Nope.  I am the computer generation.  Yet somehow, by some streak of un-luck, I have made it into my thirties and still don't know the first damn thing about the computer. Of course this means that I also have the most temperamental, useless machine on the planet at my disposal. When it works, angels sing and I radiate happiness.  Sometimes though, she's a nasty little bitch just out of spite, and I spend the entire day shutting down and restarting, my only known response to her antics. Someday I will trash her, beat the hell out of her with a baseball bat, just like in Office Space, while "Damn It Feels Good to Be A Gangsta" plays in the background.... Until then, though, she is my link to the outside world, to all that has been left behind and all that is yet to be discovered.

So come join me if you'd like.  This will prove to be a hodge-podge of all things me: some crafty things, some weight loss things (not that I'd recommend following any of my advice. Just take a look at the title of this blog!), some random thoughts on random things, and a diary of my past.  Raw and real, nothing held back.  Kinda like looking through the glass at the zoo (or more accurately some days, the mental wing).  So kick of your shoes, grab a bowl of popcorn, and enjoy the show :)
