Blogs Shmogs

I like to think that I'm interesting.
In fact, I like to think that I'm so interesting that you will take the time out of your day to read the ramblings I post on this wide world of webs.
With those ideas in mind, I have decided to start a blog, which will basically be a way for me to get my ideas about the world out of my head and into the public. Maybe you'll agree with what I've got to say. Maybe you won't.
I don't really know where I'm going to take this thing, but I do know some things it won't be:
1. It won't be about how to be a good mother in the high-tech world of today. I don't have kids. Or a husband. Or even pets. The closest thing I have to any of those items is a couple of cacti my grandmother gave me. And so far, they are doing quite well. Maybe I'll post about them and rave about how well they are developing into productive cacti of the world. (No offense to the MomBlogs. There really are some interesting MomBlogs out there.)
2. It won't be a blog about cats, dogs, or anything similar. It's way too expensive at my apartment complex to have animals. On top of that, I'm not home enough to spend quality time with an animal, so I'll just save that enjoyment for when I become a grown up with a yard.
3. It won't be political -- well, not often. While I like to pretend I know politics, I know a little about a lot of political discussions. I'm not an expert in any means. But there are a few topics that really ruffle my feathers, so I'll probably dedicate a few posts to them. I think I might start reading presidential biographies.
4. This won't be a food blog. I may occasionally talk about some new recipes, or even post pictures of something I make, but I'm not going to give you every detail of how something was made. Not that I like to keep all my recipes secret, it's just that I hate typing out recipes. They are quite tedious. If it's a recipe online, I'll give you the link. Otherwise, you'll just have to take my word that it was delicious. 
All of these topics may be thought provoking, or they just may be a way for you to kill time at work; nevertheless, I come to the number one rule of this blog -- don't leave mean comments.
I may post something that you may not agree with, but I'm not trying to start debate. I'm just putting my thoughts out there for all the world to read. If you disagree, just write "disagree" or something along those lines. Please do not go off on a tangent on my blog. This is MY opinion, and I'm entitled to it. If you have an opinion that you want to go off about, then start your own blog. Write a Facebook note. Twitter about it. Send an owl with the message to all your friends. Please do not get on here with the sole intent of "ripping me a new one." Like I said, I'm not an expert. I'm just a person who believes in the First Amendment, and I plan to exercise that right.
With that being said... Welcome to the blog!
