Listing my purpose

Percolating a little on my failure to blog and energized by successful registration to WDS2012 the thought occurred to me that my blogging wasn’t purposeful.

I have a love, love love of lists… but they all have an objective. Generated by need or out of a want of motivation there is a reason I am making the list (or setting the alarm or scheduling that thing or planning to meet that person or writing that reminder note). There is a specific purpose to adding the things on it. And, for me, great satisfaction in crossing things off if not the accomplishing of those things.

I have a few of things in my life that I am working on right now that I schedule diligently… and setting aside time and space to write here was not one of them. So if I’m not making time for it, then it is’t important right?

Not getting it done…

Are my ideas/intentions too ambitious and so it just doesn’t get there?

Am I sidetracked too easily by the shiny?

Do I loose momentum after the original idea?

Do I procrastinated to to point of extinction without a deadline?

Yes, yes And yes. Oh And yes.

And now back…

… to our regularly scheduled program…

In future posts I will be talking more about the eponyms of my blog. It will be part travelogue and part homage to some of my favorite things. I hope people read and enjoy my perspective but I confess, dear reader, I am doing this mostly for me. I have been writing over the last few months and it feels good. So I’m going to roll out some of what I have written to the webs (or what I’m reconstructing that I have written after hard drive failure) to see if that feels good too.

You’ll not find a big personal statement or picture here yet. I kinda like my anonymity for now. Feel free to reach me through the comments section (“Ask Me Anything”) with the great caveat that you are welcome to ask but I might choose not to answer.

Keep Reading. Keep Drinking. Keep Enjoying.
