I found it to be too hard to select only one general topic for my blog. I am interested in a variety of topics that I feel are relevant; however, when one topic is compared to the next, it is likely to seem a random assortment of thoughts.
Relevance is often a matter of opinion; therefore, each reader is free to make this determination.
I just turned thirty and I’m basically okay with this now; however, there is something about “that number” that tends to make a person just a little insane, at least temporarily.
It’s a time when many of us stop to consider whether we’ve accomplished all that we might have hoped by this point in our lives. It can be quite depressing; however, it can also be an opportunity to decide to really “take charge” and increase efforts to try to accomplish what we feel is important in our lives.
It’s interesting how a person’s perspective can change over time. When my friends and I were younger and still in college, we liked to complain about “being carded.” Now, however, it’s quite the compliment.
Certainly, not too much should be read into it. It might well simply be more efficient to insist on checking each person; however, the mere notion that the person might think there’s even a CHANCE I could be under 21 is pretty flattering.
I bought a Kindle 2 a few weeks ago. I was initially resistant to the concept; however, I have found the Kindle to be quite enjoyable. I will never completely stop buying “analog” books, though.
It’s very empowering to be able to have so many books at your fingertips all in one thin, sleek device. I’m glad I purchased it; however, I’m glad that I didn’t buy one when they first came out.
My grandfather often told me, “Be not the first by which the new is tried nor yet the last to lay the old aside.”
When the original Kindle came out, I figured that after a while they would bring out an improved model and reduce the price. Both things proved to be true. I feel I bought the Kindle at just the right time.
I enjoy various kinds of books. Here are some I’ve read lately:
Living Oprah by Robyn Okrant. You can read my three star review of it here: http://tinyurl.com/yc2xu6j

I plan to post to this blog at least once a week. I may post more frequently when I get in a habit of it. I hope you will enjoy my topics.
