I wasn't sure where to start with my blog. I've never really blogged before. Oh, I've had a Live Journal for years, but that never felt like something I'd want to share with strangers.
I've decided I'll start by laying out what I hope to get out of blogging. My first child, Charlotte, was just born this past June. I feel like the time is flying by at warp speed (11 weeks already!!) and I'd love to have a place to log the things I find so special about these early times with my daughter. So, first and foremost, this is what I intend to accomplish with this space.
Secondly, I enjoy writing, and I enjoy politics. As in, I enjoy watching C-Span and listening to NPR. One thing I find amazing about the information to be gleaned from C-Span, and the actually dissemination of information by the media is this: The two oftentimes do not match up. It is amazing (though sadly not surprising) how slanted the media is and sometimes outright dishonest. However, I know the average person does not enjoy listening to live sessions of Congress (understandable, they can be pretty damn dry). So anytime I'm able to watch some C-Span, I'll blog the highlights so you, my readers, don't have to sit through all the boring stuff. This is of course assuming I ever have any readers, ha!
Next blog post (which I will be putting up, like, right now) will be Charlotte's birth story!
