And so it begins...

So!

Hidely ho there blogaroonie...god I'm a dork - ha!

I follow a lot of blogs over a few different topics - interior design, makeup/beauty, life, news/opinion blah blah blah, so I thought I'd try a little blog myself on the side, so I have more idea of what's goin' on in the blogosphere...how these things work, and hell, it's nice to try and teach myself something new, not sit in a class and be taught, but sit at my 'puter and see how far I get with this thing.

Some people say that you need a niche for your blog....as yet, I have no idea what my niche is, if any....don't know whether it will be about any of the subjects I follow, or something completely different.

So for the time being, I think maybe this will be my little musings place...why? well I have a few musings to get through, and like most people, some 'iss-ues' in my head that I probably can't sort through properly unless I can get them out somehow.  Hopefully I won't offend in the process.

So what sort of stuff am I thinking about?

- career change...god I think I'm so FAR overdue, if I don't move now/soon, I'll end up being one of those sad bastards spending their entire working life doing one thing, and I'm not even 40 yet....I've stayed so long, I'm part of the furniture, but my 'give a fuck' index is permanently in the negative. Time to go. Before I leave in a coffin.

- men - lack of them. 'nuff said.

- health - I have a couple of health issues which are in and out of control.  Steps need to be taken that are hard and uncomfortable and entail complete lifestyle changes.  How do you change something that can be so much a part of your own persona?  How do you take on board all this stuff of what you do, what you eat, when you don't actually like them? when you've been trying (and trying!) to like  them/take them on board for nearly 10 yrs?

- money - need more as a single girl looking to make sure that she doesn't end up on the streets at some stage of her future life.  See 'career change'

- writing - I've had the idea of being a writer in some form since I was in highschool, and started an attempt at writing a book.  Was shithouse, naturally, but I've never taken it further, apart from some very bad poetry in highschool & uni.  Not sure that I actually have the talent for writing, but perhaps this little writing process will help the urge, or get the juices going.

- being an interesting person - I get v. anxious trying to socialise in groups - I find myself listening rather than taking part, so often end up being the 'odd man out'.  I looke around, and everyone else is in a conversation, but not with me.  I get the urge to remove myself from people after a certain amount of time, always have.  But this has now got to the stage where I work, and then go home. Because I live alone, that is turning into my only contact with people outside fo the occasional social outing, that quite often involves the same person.  I'm becomin v. boring, I need something to do / talk about / get involved in.

In short, maybe this blog will be about me turning me around...my attitude, my health, my work, my social life.  Or maybe I'll just be bitching.  We'll see :P
