Welcome to my life, now available in blog format

The time has come for me to step into cyberspace and begin a blog. Specifically, a blog about me, and my life. This is actually attempt number two at starting a blog (I was dissatisfied by my first one and since I'm a bit of a perfectionist, I started over). The main reason for having this blog is for letting people know me better. I have spent most of my life trying not to let people know who I am and that's something that I am trying to change. I'm still not sure exactly where I want to go with this, but I think that wherever it takes me, it will probably be good for me. It's long past time for me to try new things, to try to connect with people and let them into my life. Warning: I'm probably a lot different than you think I am. Well, that's good enough for a first post. Please feel free to comment and ask questions. I want to tear down these walls, and I need the help of others.
