Somehow, I have avoided blogging since my old Livejournal days (no, I’m not giving you the link, and no, I’m not going to repeat ANY of it.) I don’t know why, and given my natural tendency to write/rant/reflect, it's a little odd. But somehow blogging has never called to me – I think I’ve been afraid of the commitment, of actually coming up with things to post regularly, and of knowing that nobody actually reads what I write.
Then Carolyn (http://www.bloglovin.com/m/2178890/197447981/fb) called me out on her blog (or at least my vanity says it was me, and not somebody else named Hannah…) and informed me that I should blog, and she would read it. And my internal monologue said something along the lines of “Oh. Okay. If Carolyn thinks I should write a blog, I should probably write a blog.”
So here I am. I’m not really sure what I’ll be posting, or how often. I would expect some mixture of personal reflections, books reviews (mostly for my own sake, so I can remember all the books I’ve read, and compensate a little for the lack of English classes in my life,) and responses to current events, articles I read, etc. (you can expect a lot of links to Jezebel articles, and probably a few overly long and complicated rants about immigration issues here.) I will use too many parenthesis, and too many ellipses. I might use all caps in the “rant” type things. I will post a lot at first, and less when I run out of all the things bouncing around in the back of my head to say. And most of you will not read most entries.
But Carolyn, you’d better read it, because this is all your fault.
