Still here ...

I began this blog with the goal that this would never be something I would feel guilty about "not keeping up with" like my scrapbooking or journaling or (now) Facebooking. But, alas, it has. You're absolutely right - what's the point of having a blog if you don't update it for 10 months!!?? There is no point. So I either need to post or log off.

So, here's a post! Admittedly, not a very exciting post, but a blip on the screen to prove that I still have a pulse and I'm still here. I've realized that I have a lot going on all of the time, and often I have a lot to say about any given topic. But just sitting down to post always seems a little daunting. I've been inspired by the "Julie & Julia" idea of having a theme to my blog ... but even this has been so open-ended that it's been two or three months and I haven't been able to settle. I put it to you, most loyal of loyal blog-readers: give me a topic. A theme. An idea. A direction. Perhaps having a little more direction will be the thing to get me back into the swing of things.

And I promise ... no more 10 month hiatuses (?) ... Joel ... what's the plural for "hiatus"?
