Blogging...

I have officially and tentatively entered the world of blogging.. a few years later. My account says it was set up in August of 2007 so that should be an indicator of how this might possibly go.

At the end of July I am moving to New Mexico to go to Eastern New Mexico University in Portales. So I will be leaving my sanctuary on the Gulf and heading out west. This is the main reason I have finally decided to start this blog. For the first time in what might be ever my family is spread out away from each other, so I want to use this medium to keep them updated and involved in my goings on when the phone calls get few and far between. It happens. I know. But I never want my loved ones to think that I don't want them involved every step of the way. (If you strangers learn anything from this blog I hope it is the true love and unyeilding devotion I have for my family.) So hopefully this blog will keep them updated when I fail to do so.

I dont have a witty title or catchy description so I used a picture that I have fallen in love with. It was taken a stones throw away from where my brothers and I grew up on Galveston Bay.

A few things about this here blog:

- I misspell words. I will look them up on dictionary.com if I dont know how to spell them or if they dont look quite right, but some will slip through the cracks.
- Also I dont use apostrophes... it just laziness on my part.
- There is a chance, like thousands of other poor blogs out there, that this project will be abandoned. Though I honestly hope not.
- I will most likely be posting pictures, and recipes, and daily goings ons, and rants (maybe lots of these, ranting is a family trait), and quotes, and random musings that have been trapped in my head.
- Enjoy and dont be a hater :)

Until next time.



When I heard the learn'd astronomer,
When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me,
When I was shown the charts, the diagrams, to add, divide, and measure
them,
When I sitting heard the learned astronomer where he lectured with
much applause in the lecture room,
How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick,
Till rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself,
In the mystical moist night-air, and from time to time,
Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars.
