Okay, Okay

Right. So, I'm in computer class and bored to tears, so I decided to create a Blog. I should do my homework for next week instead, but why be proactive? I mean, I only have a thousand things to do everyday (complain,complain) with only one evening free a week (to stay home and drink more than half a bottle of red wine and dream of my own house through the help of MLS - sorry mom, I know I shouldn't drink alone. No, I am not an alcoholic. Yes, I know it wasn't very smart. Yes, I know I live in a house already. Mom, it was only ONE TIME. No, you're right, I won't do it again).

Oh that conversation above? Yes it's my mother's voice in my head - it's the anticipated phone call I am preempting. Don't lie - I know you have such conversations in your head. They may not be so specific, but ask yourself, when was the last time you ate dessert before supper? Or didn't finish all your veggies? Or didn't brush your teeth before bed? That's your mother's voice in your head. Blog it some time - I'm sure it'll help.

So, here it is. Maybe I should list my hopes and expectations for this bit o' cyberspace. Let's see, I hope to learn how to post pictures. With this knowledge in hand I will then show off my life and all those things I deem important.

I hope to make witty comments and bold remarks about the state of affairs, life, religion, and other great topics so often discussed - like the weather.

I will attempt to avoid gushing over my husband and the wonderful things he does for me or how I miss him during my day at work - particularly when I have to sit through evening events (like this computer class) and therefore not get to see him until 10:00pm (that's 12 hours without him folks! That's a lot - don't you think?).

Oh, speaking of questions, I hope to post some from time to time to encourage my friends to waste more of their day writing on my Blog. I will try to ask meaningful questions though. That way you will feel justified when blogging at work, or instead of doing the dishes or homework - what have you.

I hope to blog fairly regularly - I wouldn't want to lose my fan base. In so doing, I will try to keep it short and to the point. Though, as you can read, I do tend to ramble. But, as my husband can attest to - I do amuse my self. And really, isn't that the point of blogging?

Hey Gillian!

I'm very excited to be the first one to post on your blog, and looking forward to reading more about what you and Steve are upto.

I completely understand about having your "parents voices" in your head. I still have them too!

I love MLS, I've been checking it out too, looking for a house, this still may be awhile though.

Welcome to blog-dom!

(don't worry, I hear voices in my head too. Just ignore them and keeping drinking wine, that's what I do).
