Let's get this party started!

Okay, not really a party.  More of a discipline really.  As with many of the things I've enjoyed during my life, I've been avoiding writing for several years.  Oh, there's been the occasional limmerick here and there.  But no prose.  So this morning I committed myself to blogging.  Yes, I'm going to participate in the society of exhibitionist journalizing.  Bear with me as I stretch my fingers, mind and imagination.
