The Cave-In

Hey any/everybody.

I assume if you're reading this that you already know me, so I'm going to skip all the introductory crap that everyone else does. If you're a total stranger and you've stumbled across this somehow, then may God have mercy on your soul. I shall remain a mystery to you, and you'll get to know me as we go along. That might be fun. Probably just boring.

I feel the need to lay down some ground rules.

This is not a journal. If I wanted a journal, I'd keep that on my own time and I wouldn't make anyone else read it. As such, I will never complain here. I will rant - I promise you, I will rant - but I will never be that fifteen-year-old girl who thinks she's the most important person in the world, that her problems are the worst problems that have ever existed, that no one else has ever experienced those problems, and that everyone needs to know about them so they can pity her. I will never be that girl. (You can consider that your first little mini-rant.) So that's what this isn't. If it ever becomes that, you are fully authorized to slap the living shit out of me.

I will use this blog as a place to muse, to contemplate ideas and issues, and to write. There will be times when I just up and write an essay or a short story or a script or something here. This is the place where I can expend my energy towards something useful. From this point forward, when I have an idea, I actually have an excuse to run with it.

I've never had a blog before. I probably won't post to it every day. I probably will forget that it exists for weeks at a time. This is an experiment, basically. Bear with me. And by all means, argue with me, criticize me, make fun of me. Anything to keep it interesting.
