Every blog needs a first post



I have essentially been writing this blog for years, and even more so since being married to Luc. Observing, obsessing, critiquing, and regularly dolling out my opinions are my daily pastimes, all of which lead to diatribes—both interior and exterior—of varying intensities. Luc has, in his calm and cool nature and also as a consequence of his career, contributed in heightening my ability to harness some of my opinions while at the same time providing me with an eternal audience, and, more importantly still, sharpening my powers of scrutiny and opening my eyes to new subjects.
My idea for this is to develop some sort of tagging/labeling/rating system for the situations and experiences that take up so much of my brain space. I have strong feelings about nearly everything and relish the rare moments when I am truly neutral on a given subject, if only for a bit of repose. It is my hope that this blog will become a productive forum for my constant need to interfere in the lives of those around me, both acquaintances and strangers, and perhaps alleviate some of the awkward moments and wide-eyes I tend to create in any setting, really. I am telling myself that I will write it here instead of spitting it out to the detriment of the closest indiscriminate pair of ears. I suppose anyone who knows me will be chuckling to himself or herself just now…
