-Traditional Irish welcome -
Welcome to my new blog! It is somewhat sad to have had to lay "Sometimes I Think..." to rest but I fear it's time has passed. I feel I have grown enough during my absence that it warrants a fresh start and so here we are.
I suspect that over the next little while, I will spend some time posting getting to know me blogs for everyone. For those of you who have known me for a while now, you might find some surprises in there. If you haven't met me before, well, I suppose you will soon enough!
As for the blog... I like to write the way I speak. Punctuation is placed where I feel it should be; Sentences are as long as I like. In other words, I don't care much for rules of grammar so please don't correct my writing or my English. (If I misspell something on the other hand, please let me know so I can fix it.)
With that said, a lot of what I will be posting has more to do with thought and thought processes than may be readily apparent. If you have a stray thought, share it. If something I say smacks of utter bullshit, by all means call me on it. I like thinking, I like sharing thoughts, and I like having thoughts shared with me. Obviously, if you agree I won't mind the back-up but if you disagree, please feel free to turn it into a conversation!
I will usually include some kind of a picture or video and I will almost invariably include a quote somewhere. I may choose to post regular segments or reviews or just post completely at random. Chances are, I won't really know what to expect any sooner than you will.
Insert random gratuitous picture here.
I am open to ideas and suggestions but if I don't feel like it is something I can do justice to, I will probably not follow-up on it. Try not to get all butt-hurt if I don't follow your prompts. For that matter, if you suggest something and I post about it a couple of weeks later, try not to take offense if I forget to credit you. I will try to remember but there are times I forget that there was an inspiration before the thought itself.
And so I close this first post with a smile and reiterate that I truly do welcome everyone to share here. I look forward to hearing from everybody and I hope that as I get back into the swing of things, you will all look forward to hearing from me as well.
Talk at you soon with more purpose!
