What Was I Thinking?


Hello Fellow Bloggers and Blog Readers! Welcome to my very first blog entry, ever. Exciting huh? Try to contain your excitement. How's the water? I'm diving right in here and hoping the waters aren't too shallow or the current too swift to navigate and, Heaven forbid, there should be any undertows. Will I sink or swim?
Like the photograph? I was going for a calming effect in hopes of enticing sleep - mine. In case you're interested, I took the photo in Ventura, California on Valentine's Day. Goes with the wet theme. Wet behind the ears.
So what am I doing signing up for a blog account at 2:00am? Your guess is as good as mine...
Insanity? Clearly a possibility.
Practice? Perhaps. For what, I'm not sure but writing is always good for something, right?
Clarity? HA! Like that's gonna happen.
Focus? See above.
Bored? Hardly.
Insight? Hmmm...sounds good to me.
The question I ask is why are you reading this? How did you happen upon this particular blog and what would keep you curious enough to keep coming back? I wonder. Seriously, I do.
Now for the big anticlimax to my first blog entry...One of the natives has awakened another in the tepee and the smoke signals are going up. Looks like I'll have to get my oars and play whack a mole until everyone is peacefully sleeping again. Then I'll quietly sneak down stream in my canoe with my dream catcher and hope that my circadian rhythm will return. Hardly the romance and whimsy of a ship of dreams but it beats being up the creek without a paddle.
So much for making a big splash.

So, the editing didn't go as well as I had hoped. What happened to the spaces I created to avoid the BIG WALL OF TEXT?

The learning curve is slight but you can miss the signs if you're driving too fast!

I suppose it's bad form to comment on your own blog, right? Oh well. I always enjoyed being a nonconformist anyway.
