Am I crazy? Wait, don't answer that.

I think blogs are fun. I get sidetracked by them all the time while surfing the net. But they also seem self-indulgent, for the most part. Like, who really cares about the minutiae and detritus of other people’s lives? I heard somewhere that the average blog has one follower… the author. 


On the other hand, it is a great way to keep a journal, something I’ve obsessively done for a good chunk of my life. I can make this blog as public or as private as I like. I can learn something about technology. I can proofread myself and edit myself, always good for keeping the brain sharp.  I can write down ideas and post pictures so I don’t forget what I’ve seen and heard. 


Also, if I ever get my Etsy store going, I can link this blog to it.


I’m using Blogger (Google-based) because it seems easy; it looks like I don’t really have to learn HTML at this point if I don't want to.  Good.


Proper spelling will be mandatory here. But I do reserve the right to let a grammatical error slip by now and then. If you see one, please let me know...because if this were YOUR blog, you'd certainly be hearing from ME.
