so....

hmm. i created this blog in order to follow some that belong to friends but i don't know quite how to find them. everyone is on a different site and i don't know which to use. it seems there is a way to synchronize everything but i'm not really sure what is what. technology was supposed to get simpler but i find myself confounded all the time. i feel old already so i cannot imagine the technology to come. if i'm ever a professor i know i'll be that one who has to call up a student to turn on the projector every time. but the internet is good storage space for the thoughts i want to look back on because it never forgets. so here, i guess, is my first of what is sure to be a very intermittent series of "blogs," a word that sort of disgusts me.
