ok, here i go...
ok, so the pressure of putting something on the family blog has taken me over the edge, and i am finally taking the plunge....many of the bloggers in our circle are men, except for my girl, Linda, who is a brave lady and i come with courage drawn from hers....and knowing that many-a-chicks are blogging without fear, like my girl Kate.....so thank you, for being strong and treading waters that in my world, men have been dominating (good thing womens liberation wasn't up to me, we would be REALLY unfairly treated if it was). So, I can't promise to be witty (although i will try) or to have any deep revelations about life or to even have anything interesting, in fact I guarantee that i won't - but my theory about blogging is that we aren't really looking for that when we read other peoples blogs, we really just want a peek into each others lives in an honest and creative venue...what a perfect "spot" for that, this blog.....I am the first one to say that people watching is the GREATEST pass-time....I used to intentionally block out time at the mall for the activity, and i think that blogging is the mall-watching of our generation....if it was people watching at the mall in the 80's, its blogging in the 00's....is that sort of twisted????

Ahh, finally the first post comes =). I was talking to dion yesterday about trying to get you to start blogging. Its good to see you've joined the rest of us.
This is where we would chant "one of us" if there was more than just me =D.
Welcome to the world of blogging.
I never really thought of reading blogs as being like people watching but it totally is. Good insight. I used to love to people watch at the bars when I was in college. I would just sit back in my chair and take in all of the stuff going on. It is so much fun.
I'm looking forward to your next post.
Hey There Girlfriend!
