Why Not?

If I'm being honest, I'm not really that interesting. I'm actually quite the nerd. But everyone seems to be jumping onto the blog bandwagon, so I figured "Why not?" I've always been a very closed-off person. No one ever really knows what's going on inside my head. So publishing what is basically an open letter to the world scares me. It's a way for me to let my guard down. 2009 is rapidly approaching, so I'm thinking it's time to turn over a new leaf. A new Erin will be born. My 2008 wasn't that great. I had some family issues to deal with and then some personal stuff to sort through. So it's safe to say I'm ready for a change. A big one. Something that will rock my face off. I figure starting a blog is another chance to create a change. So here it is, my first post. If you're still reading, thank you. I tend to ramble a lot. I'm a writer at heart, so my words tend to pour out really fast. And my blogs always end up longer than they should be. Oh well. This is a trial-and-error process. Let the games begin.
