::insert cliche about "it being a long time" here::
I've decided to give myself a challenge. I often challenge myself, but rarely succeed. Thusly I am turning to the blog world to help me. And by blog world, I mean the two people who might read this.
In a few days my birthday will be arriving. But not just any birthday, my Quarter of a Century birthday. And for me, for some reason, this one is a biggie. For the first time I feel faced with the reality of turning another year older. The weightiness of this birthday, I believe, stems from my perception of where I should be in life in contrast to where I actually am. And so the obvious disparity is discouraging. But also in looking ahead I realize that 25 is a pivotal point in directing where the next 5, 10 even 20 years are going to go. I need to start making some choices, changes and commitments.
Here in lies my challenge, my first challenge of my 25th year. I am going to blog for 30 days. Earth shattering, I know. But as you can see from the convenient side-bar-blog-date-calendar-mapping-thing I have been anything but consistent on this thing. Beyond that though, this is more about me processing what I am thinking about doing. Plus, my days are filled with hilarious moments that deserve more than a FB status line. What better place than a blog to do all these things...and more!
So fasten your seat belts folks, it's going to be a crazy ride to February 1st, 2011! And if you, afore mentioned two people, have any ideas of things I should discuss or include in my 30-day-blog-barrage, please let me know via comments.
