Sometimes I write things

I don’t pay attention to a damn thing. At all.

The most difficult thing, is just getting started.  This is my third time since 2006, initializing some blog software on my vanity domain hosting.  The previous two attempts, met the classic ignominious ends of complete deletion.

The first time, was largely due to just forgetting the admin password.  Plus, I like that fresh-install smell.  So I threw everything out and installed.

The second time, I didn’t forget the password, but I went such long stretches between posting that I just didn’t feel any connection to the previous posts.  Things, for a variety of reasons lately, feel a lot different lately than  a couple years ago, or even just last year.

Plus, I like that fresh-install smell.

So here we are, round three.  I installed this software about a month ago, and just let it sit, unmodified.  I don’t have any good justification for fucking with it today; I just felt like it.  So here we are.  Looking at the default WordPress blue and white template, a little pruning done on superfluous links, and an overwritten placeholder greeting post.  I do not know how ‘faithful’ I am going to be to this device.  I don’t even know who will, or how this will be read, since I don’t really intend to tell anybody I’m messing with this thing.  A first post like this, I doubt I’m selling myself very well to the rare, inquisitive reader that made it this far anyways.

Welp.  Excelsior.
