Here we go. . . AGAIN!

I keep trying to blog.  I keep thinking that it would be therapeutic to blog but. . . but. . . it's just so HARD!  No, seriously. Blogging is hard work.  You have to come up with something to blog about. Then you must attempt to discuss said thing in a cogent and coherent fashion and--if you are really putting the pressure on yourself--you must be somewhat entertaining while doing so. 



I've decided I might not be up to the task. I mean, I have LOADS of things I could just ramble on about (as I'm doing at this very moment) but does that really mean I should subject the interwebs to my rambling musings about whatever topic is floating across my prefrontal cortex?  I don't know.  It all seems a bit. . . . arrogant, self-aggrandizing, and insipid.

I'm hoping this picture of my corgi, Stella, will garner some sympathy from whomever stumbles across this tomfoolery.  She's pretty cute if we're being honest.



I have no clue what I will be blogging about.  I attempted to blog about teaching but. . . found I could not do so without the broad use of expletives (the politics of education are a major bummer).  I have also attempted to blog about knitting but. . . but. . . it's my HOBBY and blogging about it regularly felt a lot like a job.  Yuck. 



I suppose, in the end, this will end up being more of a stream of consciousness type of blog where I go bumbling off to discuss whatever is on my mind at the time. Fair warning if you happen across this business and are thinking of bookmarking it--below are a list of possible things I might discuss.  I'm not promising intelligent discussion though. . . so don't get your hopes up.



I'm not alphabetizing this either.  That's just crazy.

*Hockey

*Books

*My kids (AKA: The Godless Heathens)

Hopefully you've caught the gist of this. . . . good luck. . . you're going to need it if you come back.
