Why?

Anytime you're starting a new blog, you need to ask yourself, "why am I doing this?". In my case, I'm starting this blog because I feel like I could use a "diary". I already have another blog, and a shared website, but both are frequented by too many people that I just don't want inside my head.

Actually, I'm undecided as to whether or not I will tell anyone about this blog or if I'll just let it sit here, waiting to be discovered. At first meeting, most people find me to be very shy (I am), but then with time I become more outgoing and chatty, and I think a lot of people would think they have a pretty good grasp of what makes me tick. However, despite all my chatting, and perceived openness, there's a whole other layer that I don't share with too many people.

I tend to use teasing and sarcasm too keep people at a distance, but I often will tell people what I think they want to hear, to keep them close, without actually offering up too much of myself. I don't really have a lot of close friends. There's a few, but even they rarely get the whole story.

Enough background for now....I'm sure if you actually read this, you'll find out as much about me (and more) than you ever wanted.
