starting out

I've been reading other people's blogs for awhile now and really enjoy being able to know what is going on in their lives. I feel more connected to them though I may not speak to them often. I guess that is the down side to the Internet age. There are so many times I want to communicate but don't take the time to sit down and write an email, and then I wonder if anyone really wants to know my random thoughts or experiences. So I'm trying this blog idea out. I think I will actually write more often using this means of communication. It will give me a chance to ask questions and maybe get some responses? At least I hope you will feel closer to me (and communicate back :)
