I'm a personal web noob. I haven't written a line of HTML in years. Five years into "real adulthood," whatever that means (it means post-college for me; what does it mean for you?), I want to try creating something. No built-in audience of friends or family. No sharing. I just want my own little corner of the web to write little blogs. I'm an aspiring writer. That's what writers do, right? Have quirky spots where they express their feelings? Add tiny bits of prose? Languish and procrastinate? This is that space. I want a reason to exist. I want to write.

I'm not always this dreadfully serious. Hopefully, this will be a place where I rant about the movies I've watched. The books I've read. How much I love Godzilla. Post photography from my 35mm film camera. Something about typing all this nonsense into this obsidian text editor with the glowing green code notation makes it feel official and fake at the same time. I'm excited to be here. Excited to be trying something new. I struggle to keep up with things. Make them last. I hope this time it will be different.

If you stumble upon this, I'm sorry. I can't bear to re-read the nonsense I just typed above. Typos. Cringe. Melodrama. I think that's the current vibe. Please don't take me seriously. Also? Thank you for reading even just a word of this. Here's to a new venture.
