Welcome Yada Yada

This should be made into a dance or something, I feel sure. Just think of it, doing the Welcome Yada Yada; sounds fun to me.

Eh, anyway I'm a long term off and on blogger. I started blogging back in 2001, before September 11 even (god forbid, there was life back then?). So I've been around the blog (pun intended) a couple of times in that respect.

My off stage started in 2002, when I got sidetracked by being a columnist at Backwash, where I am still sidetracked, but not as exclusively perhaps. And the only reason why I am not wholly sidetracked at BW anymore is because I am no longer a full-time college student.

That was the other reason for my sporadic postings on my previous blog. For the past four years I have been a music education major, a subject which I will go into more at a later date. However I will say that at the very least, being a music major (and surviving) is the hardest thing I have ever done in my entire life (including surviving middle school-which nearly didn't happen either). I just graduated in May and now have a bit more time on my hands.

I also have a livejournal account, which has the same name as this blog, but not the same url. So why do I have both an lj and a blog? Simple. Blogs are better. The only reason I have a lj is because a lot of my school friends have them and it's an easy way to stay in contact with them. But all I really do w/ my lj is post pics of my baby nephew, Woody. He was born 4 months early, weighing only 1 pound and 4 ounces. He's now over 7 pounds and these past 3 and a half months have been hell on everyone in the family (plus some honorary family members). But he seems to be doing okay now.

I hope to make this blog a bit more personalized over the next few days or so. I changed blogs so that I could have the chance to really do what I wanted to do with my blog, without having to totally revamp an existing one.
