beginning

I'm not really sure what this is going to be, or what real purpose this is going to serve. I've blogged before I suppose, on facebook and myspace, but this is my first time doing writing online without my name attached to it. I may end up putting this link on facebook as it is, but that'll come later I guess.

I always have a lot to say, I always have a lot on my mind, and I also hold a rather undefined desire to have my thoughts out in the open, to a point. Not exactly sure what that means. I guess I am an attention whore, I want people to read what I have to say and I want to see how they react, but at the same time I'd like a certain disconnection from what I write, which social networking sites offer little of. If I write something on facebook, it has my name in bold print, it shows up on the minifeed, and anyone who bothers to click it when it pops up in their face can read it. It takes a little more effort to get here, which (I hope) is enough to filter out the people who don't really care. Even if I put the link on facebook, it's still better, there's still some independence, both in the blogs themselves and the way I write in them. Which is good.

I know none of that makes sense. I know in reality this is still the internet, the most open place imaginable, but still...there's something comforting about this. Whether I can fully rationalize it is irrelevant in the end.

So here I am, I guess. Found this site on a friends profile and thought I'd give it a go. The url is from an Iron & Wine song, "Each Coming Night." Music is everything to me, I imagine that's what the majority of this will be about. I don't really feel a need for a title because there's nothing here to summarize yet. So...yeah.

Edit: Thanks, Brenna.
