why I don't twitter

Yeah, this is pretty much why I don't twitter.  Not that I have people who I boss around, but just because it seems so unstoppably vapid.

Welcome To My Blog!

Wow!  You know, I've been thinking about doing one of these for a long, long time.  I've always admired the people who can do these well, and I really enjoy keeping up with friends through their blogs.  So I've decided to finally give it a shot. 

A couple of disclaimers: first, blogs, almost by definition, are a little bit narcissistic.  I'm aware of that, and I'll try to put it into perspective.  What redeems the whole experience for me is when people can share their thoughts and observations back, so please feel free to sound off here anytime.

Second: as I get going it will be a little bit difficult to balance my desire to be candid and transparent with not wanting to commit 'overshares.'  Bear with me as I figure this out. 

For the next few weeks I'll be figuring out how to make all the bells and whistles on this page work.  Once I get it set-up the way I want it I'll be posting on a regular basis.  Feel free to check back often as I get this thing up and rockin'.
