Welcome!

For years, I've toyed around with the idea of starting a blog. Well, wait, there's already a caveat to that statement. Throughout high school and the majority of college, I kept a blog with a handful of friends-- it was a way to stay connected, have an audience for many rants, and to be heard when I had something to share. While I stopped blogging with that group for a variety of irrelevant reasons (mostly, I outgrew it), it began my interest in blogging to a larger audience.

I've missed the chance to share my thoughts, or to just post a link to an article or particularly funny video. Mostly, I want the world (or, more accurately, you) to share in the things that I find captivating, hysterical, or sometimes outrageous....And my less notable day-by-day life. 

Throughout the past few months, when I've chatted with people about starting a blog, everyone offered me pieces of advice. Some said "blog regularly so you'll actually do it!" and another said "pick a theme, that way more people will read it." Most people just warned me that I wouldn't have time. Well, audience, I have no plan for this blog. This blog, well, it's going to be about me. I have a feeling that it will include a variety of grad school musings, thoughts related to my current job, adventures with friends and family...and everything in-between.
