I started this blog for a number of reasons. I mostly just wanted a place to share my thoughts, funny stories, and interesting links. However, I’m hoping that it evolves with me and can be more than just that. Perhaps in the future I can write about interesting international travels or keep in touch with people who no longer live close to me. Maybe someday I’ll be a professional shopper and I can write about my recent/great/horrible purchases so people can learn from my experience. Or maybe I’ll just write in it for a couple weeks and then lose interest.

I used to think anyone who had a blog was vain or self-centered, since it seemed like just another way to hear yourself talk. I guess that may still be true, but I now prefer my friend Abby’s term, “Shamelessly self-indulgent.”
