Hello, My Name Is (blank)

I like the anonymity that this provides me.

I never thought I'd start a blog, you see, and this is really a whim. I heard of a friend's blog and was filled with this intense desire that I wanted to share in this... connectivity. To put it frankly, I was jealous. Jealous that she had people from all over the world reading her thoughts and nobody knows what I'm thinkin' because I never ever share things with people.

I've tried to start journals in the past. I completed one. And a quarter. Now I just record vacations. I record what I did each day: what I ate, where we went, what I wore. In this way, I can completely keep every moment of this vacation alive. I've done this many times.
Except with the most recent vacation, I stopped. Perhaps I grew out of this... phenomenon.

My favorite poem is called "I Live In Music" by Ntozake Shange.
My favorite drink is champagne.

I am not religious, but I wish that I were. I was just given "The Savvy Convert's Guide To Choosing A Religion." Perhaps I'll write about my thought process.

I have a purple cell phone.
My favorite name is Lily, or Lucy, or Carmen.
I would like to be named Carmen-- and that's because I'm nerdy and I like Latin too much and Carmen means 'song' in Latin and I'm a singer but not just for fun. I am deeply a singer.
