Once again, I'm trying something new...

Not one to let moss grow under my feet, I'm jumping into something new again. It's not like I've stopped doing other things, although some projects have come to a halt. I just have been putting off getting a site together for myself and decided it was time to just do it.
Almost everyone has those kind of moments, the desire to begin something, to do something different. But there are these chains that we tie ourselves down with, that keep us from taking action.
  • I can do it later... (when I have more time, more money, less stress, less work...)
  • I don't know what to do... (yet when you need to find out something, you have no problems...)
  • It's too much to learn... (that all depends, you want to be a rocket scientist or just learn something new...)
  • I haven't got the time...(I can relate, but if it's something you want to do...try and make the time.)
  • Is it profitable? What's it worth? (Since when does anything worthwhile have to turn a buck? This is sad...)
I'm starting this site because it's something that I've been wanting to do for some time. I've tried to get things started several different times, but they mostly fizzled out. I have a MySpace, a Facebook (don't go there much), a Yahoo Profile, a MSN profile, an IMVU homepage, some game site profiles, a Writer's Cafe page and some others that I've trouble remembering. Just like lots of others I've pieces of me scattered all over the web.
(It makes me think of a spider web, with all my sites and profiles just hanging in it....not a comforting thought. Btw...where's the spider? ::shivers:: Never mind...I don't want to know.)

So here I am creating yet another piece of myself to hang in that web. But this time I've got a little clearer picture of what I want to do. I don't know if all the knowledge stuck in this head of mine is of any value to anyone else, but that will remain to be seen as I get this site polished up and organized some. I've been online for almost two decades. (anyone remember Qlink or CompuServe? Not including downtimes...) I've grown up learning skills that seem to be almost extinct in this century, plus I've learned a lot along my journey thus far...
Who knows, maybe I have some information that might be of some small use to someone out there. With all the millions of other sites out there, maybe I can find a place for myself...

So I'm starting this up and sending it out and we will see what happens from there. I'll try to do a better job on my site to introduce myself some. Just don't expect much since I'm not that good at the introduction type stuff... but I'll give it a shot anyhow. For now, I'll just sign off and thank you for reading this far...I do tend to ramble...so you've been warned now...so you can be prepared next time you drop by...
