You know, this should have begun at least a week ago, but I’ve gotten so caught up in useless minutae to put it off that it’s been here, sitting blankly.  One moment encounters all of these thoughts of grandeur, that what I say is going to be so poignant and wonderful that I’m going to receive a record audience in return, all pining for my latest thoughts and reflections.  The next moment traps me in something akin to the LaBrea tar pits, an overwhelming feeling of doubt and hesitancy, an acknowledgment of my own insignificance, and, of course, to paraphrase Stuart Smalley, that no one’s going to care, and I’m ultimately going to end up homeless and penniless and 20 pounds overweight with no one to ever love me.

And so, true to GenX form, when the going gets tough, the tough do nothing.

I wanted to put this out there because I know I’m not the only one who feels fundamentally different on a societal level.

I wanted to put this out there because I know the idea of the American Dream hasn’t worked ONLY for me.

I wanted to put this out, I don’t know, because I have nothing better to do?

And to top it all off, I have zero blogging experience, so I don’t know when I’m creating some sort of extraordinary faux pas within this community, I don’t know if there are already 1000 different bloggers talking about the very same thing I am, but maybe we’ll cross paths and realize something we didn’t before.  Who knows.

Anyways, welcome to my blog.  I hope you come back often and post your thoughts.  sarahanne
