My First Blog by the Divine Miss M

Although I am new to this whole blogging business I am by no means a techno peasant. Blogging was recommended to me by one of my dearest friends here in NYC as a means of keeping my writing chops sharp. Unfortunately I am already feeling the pressure not to have this devolve into a total snoozefest.

I suppose I should start by telling a little about myself, which may, in turn hopefully explain why I've embarked on this mentally masturbatory exercise. I was born in Winston-Salem, NC, aka Withered-Salami, North Cackalacky (this should somewhat explain the URL). And while I'm a big fan of North Cackalack, I am, by no means, a fan of Winston-Salem. It is a pretty town, but it is truly the land that time forgot. People leave town to go to college and return having married their high school or college sweetheart, they start squeezing out a few puppies who will attend the same schools their parents did and the whole cycle starts ALL over again. It is endless, it is mind-numbingly dull and provincial and it is Winston-Salem. I am a product of this private school vicious cycle but have chosen to move to NYC, remain childless and rather unfortunately, single, but I have managed to escape perpetuating a legacy of sameness. Whew! Yeah me! I will, at a later date, however, regale you with stories of my 20th high school reunion. It was truly as though everyone had swelled.

Ok, back to work now. I'm having entirely too much fun and must justify my overly inflated hourly rate. More later...Ciao for now!

Can’t believe I’m just discovering you. Is there a way to write you directly?
