_______Here's to Trends

Adel is harassing me because I'm always five years behind a trend:  "Instead of starting a blog, why don't you do some research and find out what the next great medium is going to be?  You could be cutting edge."

My response: "Cutting edge?  Me?"  The thought is laughable.

In seventh grade, I was still listening to Micky Mouse Club cassette tapes while my friends were grooving to NKOTB.  If you don't know what that means, you're a bigger dork than I am.  By the time I figured out what it stood for, they were old news and it wasn't cool to like them anymore.

          

My mode of operation states, without exception, that I must always jump on a band wagon years after its peak of popularity has passed.  This is why I have decided to start a blog years after everyone else in the world has already learned to create, maintain, individualize, and even profit from their own.

I actually started this blog in July 2008 but at the time I never intended to upkeep it past the first entry.  Originally, I just needed a place to post my faith story so I could share it with the ladies who were interested in joining my small group.  So it has been sitting, unattended, for over a year.  Now that I've finished publishing my second book and have no other large writing project currently going, I thought this blog would be an excellent venue for recording the other idiotic thoughts that pop into my head.

I still have a lot to learn about how to work this thing. Pictures and links will be coming soon!  Hope you enjoy!
