First I gave in to a cell phone, and now a blog---oie veigh!

I speculate that keeping in touch is difficult for Peace Corps Volunteers, so I'm beginning a blog to tell my fibs, fables, and other lies from a platform that is like an archived bulk email--basically, and excuse that allows me to say that I am keeping up with people in the most personal and heartfelt manner possible. I will also use this blog to brag about myself, exaggerate my trials, and articulate my innermost thoughts so that people know how awesomely tempered and intellectual I am.

You'd think starting a blog would be easy now that the internet is geared toward grade schoolers, but no. First you have to come up with your own title, something that's going to be on the top of your page all the time. Then you must choose your font; it took me a rather long time, and once I came down to either Lucinda Grande or Georgia, I was so torn that I had to leave my blog and return a day later to look at the two samples: Lucinda Grande vs. Georgia. And these are just appetizers that come before choosing what to write! For the sake of what again? Oh, yeah, you want to hear stories that I make up about what I'm doing.

On April 8th, 2010, I was invited and have accepted my invitation to serve as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Honduras as a Protected Areas Management Advisor.
