trying on a new pair of shoes: blogs

"well..." i said to myself, "what the hell, i'd better start a blog."

do you readers mind if i don't use capitals? i think they're

overrated. however i'm willing to hear any arguments otherwise, and if you

so desperately feel it's easier to read with capitals, i just might be so inclined to grant your wish.

i guess this blog will be with the intention of keeping my loved ones up to date and in the loop as i begin the next big adventure in my life: volunteering in nicaragua con mateo. but until then i suppose i'll use it as a way to share random abundances of joy and intrigue as i continue living the first real summer vacation since the heavens only know when.
