Why a web diary? Why now?

Why NOT?

And who knows -- maybe someone'll find it vaguely entertaining.

The idea is an entry a week. My goal is to breed a hybrid of Tomato Nation and My Life in 12 Point Font. Let's see how I do.

A brief introduction:

Cast of Characters/The Usual Suspects:

Me - It's all about me. 31 y.o. desk jockey. The degree is in Communications, but I hardly touch the stuff. I'm 5'2" and a registered book junkie. I'm in dire need of a life. Can often be found holding down an aisle seat at an indie film or the latest popcorn flick. (I sing the praises of my proximity to Scarecrow Video).

Cyn - The housemate and coworker. Hails from Georgia. Completely addicted to Farscape and I have no idea why. Affectionately blamed for all lousy television.

T'Auld Man/Pop/Not-the-Mama - Dad. My hero. Damn groovy for someone just about to draw a pension. And he can beat up your Dad.

The Mommy Lady - Mom. She's also my hero and way groovy. I never have to worry about ANYTHING -- because she already has.

Mer - My sister the Wondermom. Lives too blasted far away.

The Lads - My nephews, aka Scooter, Bink and Haggis. And yes, they're cuter than yours.

Other suspects will be introduced as events warrant.

Just remember...

You've been warned!
