My First Blog

Ooh, I feel like a grown-up now. I'm posting my first freestanding blog on the World Wide Web. It wasn't long ago that I was wondering what a "blog" was, and the word wasn't even in the previous edition of the Official Scrabble Player's Dictionary. But now I know, and I know I can pretty much make it what I want it to be. Which is to be determined. Or maybe I should say it is to be sculpted. Yes, that sounds more creative.

The only thing I'm really concerned about right now is that my chosen title might throw someone off: It kind of looks like "raisinbran.blogspot.com," which I'm sure is something totally unrelated to me. Although it might have more flavor.

Ok, so this is actually my second freestanding blog (meaning, not confined in subject matter to the specific content of another web site). I am shopping around for a blog space on the Internet, and wrote a "test" blog a couple days ago someplace else. But it is tucked away in a private little spot, and it will disappear when my free trial expires sometime next week. I'm not paying $X a month just to write my thoughts down in a blog that is to be sculpted as I go along. Not that my thoughts aren't priceless, mind you.
