Note to the Follower

You may be wondering why you are here at this page and what it is that this blog will add to your day. If it will add nothing to your day then you know you might as well not be here. You may find comfort in knowing that if this blog does in fact add nothing to your day then it will be as if you never were here and there's no harm done. Below I have provided further details for your post-blog experience.

[1] You have found something here to take with you. I have said something worth saying and you are thanking me for this blog. I accept your thanks.

[2] You are leaving with nothing. Perhaps you will try again... perhaps not. I will not apologize at this point, for it's as if you were never here and I find it unnecessary to apologize for something that never happened. Thank you for never coming to my blog. You would have been a waste of bandwidth.

Entree?


I was the little girl who had a diary because my big sister did and my mom did and *my dad wished I were born a son.

I never really knew what was suppose to be written in a diary.

I had it figured out that I was suppose to write my thoughts and feelings down. So i tried that approach for a while but my thoughts flowed so freely and went on for pages... I would have to stop writing because my hand would be cramping up, fingers bleeding, and my writing indecipherable after writing for so long. It was a horrible experience to say the least.

I resorted to writing down what I had to eat that day and jotting down a quick prayer for God to read while I was away. *Sometimes I go a whole day with out thinking about food and other days I think about it every second, there's just no balance. So as I'm sure you can already see... this menu/prayer book didn't last long. I've told you all of this so that you can know the history behind me making this blog. I am at last going to dedicate myself to writing down different things in my life beyond food. This will still be a menu in a sense, as I will list the "food for thought" that I partake of on a daily basis. If you are thinking right now that you would rather not partake of these "leftovers" I completely understand. But if you're bored and have the munchies... feel free to stop by.

Oh I should probably tell you before you leave that whenever you see a purple asterisk (*) before something I say, it means that what ever follows is not relevant to the current topic but I thought about it while typing. Skipping these portions of text is optional as it will not add to your understanding of the "main course"

  1. I'm glad you explained that little mark (*) because I thought those sentences were a little random. I'm also sorry that your dad wished for you to be a boy...
