I've made the mistake before of trying to maintain a blog with a very narrow topic focus. As a result, there were tons of things I wanted to talk about that I couldn't, and nothing to talk about regarding stuff I could.
I'm not doing that this time. This blog will have a few focal points, but if I decide I want to talk about pigs eating bacon...I'm going for it.
Here are some things about me...this relates to some of the topics that you can expect to find here at some point.
1 - I'm Child Free. I am not Child Less. The distinction is that I have made a deliberate and conscious choice regarding the possiblility of having children, and decided that it is not and never has been for me. I feel having children is something you should want, not just do because it's in the "life script".
2 - I'm an Atheist. I do not believe any religion, past or present, holds the divine truth of the universe. As a result, the divine beings these religions are focused around are no more real than characters in a fictional novel. At this time, we do not have the capabilty of proving that the universe displays deliberate intent, design, or management on a higher level. I have a mind, I'm going to use it without restriction, and it happens to require actual evidence.
3 - I'm an Alaskan. I live in an awesome place dammit, and every so often you are going to hear about it. Possibly see it if I can trouble to get a camera I enjoy using.
4 - My politics are mine. I'm neither Red nor Blue. I'm Purple and proud of it. That means Sarah Palin mania annoys me, and if Obama does something messed up, I'm not going to sugar-coat about it. I'm not on either team, so I'm not going to worry about my views offending one team or the other. I work my ass off at elections time to learn relevant information about candidates (I don't care what their respective Party made them wear) before picking and punching my ballot.
5 - I'm a 5'1" female. Only recently (helped by reading other blogs) I've learned my hatred of shopping for clothes is justifiably placed...especially when you've been shopping in the wrong section for your body type. Petite in clothes is about height, not girth (shush, I've lost 18 pounds since April). I'm not going to bore you with fashion "wisdom" as I don't have much, but I may want to occasionally crow about the occasional shopping success.
That seems like a good start for now. Already topics are jostling around in my head desiring self-expression. Good, but I don't want to over-post myself out of subjects of interest! So I will go ahead and bring this post to a close.
