Perfection

So I started this new blog, hoping that I'd write profound or entertaining, or profoundly entertaining things. Apparently I set the bar too high, once again, and have been avoiding writing anything. I have so many brilliant ideas floating around in my head, yet they never see the light of day. And why, you ask? Because I have this impractical idea that whatever I put down has to be just right. I've read that this is not an unusual phenomenon.

So to overcome this fear of imperfection, I will just write and write and write, and hope that noone who is looking for perfection reads my blog. As noone actually knows about this blog just yet, I think it's a safe gamble.

(I'm seeing a new issue with my new, wireless keyboard....it doesn't respond as fast as I type. I can deal with this, as long as I trust that the letters will show up eventually. I usually know when I've made a mistake, and backspace to correct automatically. It's kinda funny to watch.)

I took a nap this afternoon, and so I'm not sleepy. Usually I would be asleep by 10 or 10:30. This pattern is not going to work if I get a job. At least, I don't think so. Maybe it would. Depends upon what time I get home. If I teach, I could take a nap when I get home, do Mom stuff, and then do grading and planning stuff, when my kids clear off of the computer and go to bed. Hmmmm. Will have to think about that.

Greetings

This is my first post here at Blogger.com. I have had postings at LiveJournal, and on MySpace, but wanted one a little more serious - a place where I could actually put coherent thoughts together and publish them. You know, a grown-up blog! So, although I don't have anything to say right this minute, I've now got a place to do it.
