So, here it is, an new dog performing an old trick: someone else on this planet has set up a blog! While not new to blogging in general, I felt the need to find a new outlet for myself. I guess, like phases in life, my days of stubborn HTML-independence is over and I have succumbed to the world of blog-engines.
Again, while not new to the concept, I am somewhat new to the “atmosphere,” so to speak. Never, besides the Notes section on FB and my ancient Xanga account from my days as an absolute n00b, have I felt the need to, again, succumb to the use of a blog-engine. I always thought that if you wanted the world to see something, make the effort and make it all yourself. So I battled with Microsoft FrontPage and other desktop writing software; I warred with HTML and textboxes. And yet, it seems, the world of the milquetoast and conforming blog-engines have won.
But all is not lost. (Here am I, sounding like the truly pretentious idiot I come off as in my writing.)
At least, I hope.
Blogs in themselves are reason for individuality, right? So whoever loses enough brain cells to even remotely glance at this will understand that past all the hues of tan and brown and the generic Georgia font is someone who is not like anyone else in any way at all, is someone who (again) battled with individuality and lost but still tries to retain that one, singular strand that keeps her herself in this world of cardboard cut-outs and cookie-pressed morons.
Did that make sense? Hmm, I seem to ask myself that often…
