Here I go!

I love reading blogs, from legit money-making operations to personal accounts of day to day life. I've thought about writing my own for awhile now. Yesterday, I discovered through an internet rabbit hole of a google account that I started this blog sometime in October of 2007. GeekALicious at crazycatladygeek.blogspot.com, with a bright pink background, nothing posted, and absolutely no recollection of ever having created it. Oh, how I laughed at myself! I hate, HATE, the term Crazy Cat Lady. I'm not too fond of the Geek thing, either. I'm ok with pink, but it's not my favorite color. So I don't know what I was thinking and have convinced myself I was tipsy and sarcastic when I did it. Maybe? Who knows. According to my calendar, it was during graduate school, which was a confusing time anyway.

I reconsidered starting a blog when this happened on my facebook page the other day:

Perhaps I have things to talk about that might be better suited for a blog format than a facebook status update? Perhaps. At least I already know how to turn off the comments here.

What stopped me from having a blog before was that I thought it should be about something specific. I think what I'm actually going to do here is post about things I really like... or really dislike. There will probably be stuff about my cats, as I am a lady who had a couple of them (my craziness level has yet to professionally assessed). Also I have a PhD in chemistry, so I can't rule out some geekiness, either. There will probably be stuff about my favorite places on the internet. There will absolutely be posts about food. I love food. Oh, and TV. I like TV. I find the political process very interesting as well, so I warn that there will probably something about that here too. I guess we'll see what happens, eh?

I might as well formally introduce the kitties:

Toby & Ion: Brothers or Boyfriends?!

Thanks for reading :)
