Well-begun is half done

Time to get with the 21st century on this blog thing. Apart from the fatuous "this is my first entry, oh my!" it's hard to know what to say in the first post, since it seems to be an all-or-nothing thing. One can say everything possible ("Here is the exhaustive story of my romantic misadventures, plus pictures of my family, all my pets, and my third-grade teacher!"), and overwhelm any readers that might happen along (by "readers," of course, I mean readers besides the three friends one forces to read one's new blog ). Or one can take the high road and say nothing.

Or, one can say a lot about nothing. Like I just did.
