In the beginning . . .

I've long been encouraged to use this "web log" thing . . . a blog . . . in spite of my lack of understanding as to why someone would do so. I have a history of keeping journals, but I seldom let other people read my journal. I doubt that this "blog" will replace a journal, but it may give me a place where I record the mundane and perhaps, the not-so-mundane.

With that being said, let the blogging begin!
