Happy New Year and welcome to the latest manifestation of my madness blog. Topics will run the gamut and be more personal than at Age of BS. My primary goal has always been to survive with (not in) style and enjoy the ride. Unfortunately I’ve been in a slump for a (long) while. Maybe now that I’m older, fatter, and crazier I can mount some sort of comeback. It’s a long shot. Over time the tale will unfold here.
Stories from past lives are planned for future postings. Additionally I’ll chronicle my relationship with my redatives. My struggle for the legal tender may prove blog-worthy. Books, movies, and music interest me, sometimes more than others, and are apt to be posted on if and when the spirit moves me. Then there are my ongoing health challenges.
If you are morbidly curious and have a strong constitution, you may eventually find something amusing here. If you don’t, what the hell? Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Don’t expect anything and you won’t be disappointed. All that.

Hi writerchick – No idea what this thing will shape up like. My life is pretty messy, but it’s mine. I thought I’d write about something I’m involved with as opposed to things that are way out of my control, or even influence. BTW, I enjoy your personal posts. You’re a fine writer. Writing about me will prove challenging, both technically and emotionally, but maybe I’ll get a little better for my trouble. Happy New Year WC!

Hi J,
Happy New Year!
I’ve been feeling a little down lately, could be the weather. I don’t like winter. I love summer. But hey, I can still appreciate winter’s beauty.
I blogged about myself for almost 2 years at LJ, not sure if I’ll go back to personal blogging. I felt I wanted to try blogging about politics and stuff in the media. It’s rather boring but if you want to see my entries at LJ: http://azuredlite.livejournal.com/

light – Sorry you’ve been down. Sounds like SAD to me. I tend to prefer winter because it gets so damn hot, and stays that way, down here (Mobile, Al.) that it wears me out. Then there’s the little thing called hurricane season. Plus, our winters are very mild. The gray, though, gets to me, and in a big way.
Thanks for the link. I’ll check the you you used to be out. Historically I’ve found personal blogging to be in poor taste and rather boring. Ultimately, though, if we want to contribute something unique, what else is there? I’m not after traffic and don’t think I have anything (instructive) to add to the ongoing political debates. Not sure how the “personal blogging” will pan out here. Hopefully it’ll prove cathartic and improve my writing too.
Happy New Year and the best to you in ‘07 and beyond!
