Aw, look at the mama duck that has nested outside the State Library (where our office is)!

A word on blogging....
When I first had the idea to begin a blog, it was actually a big relief to me-I was always nervous about facebook, about all of the information that is just out there; even though my profile is private, it makes one weary of what information is getting out (not that I'm under the false impression that I'm particularly interesting or scandalous in any way, but still). With a blog, I can control who views it without the guilt of not accepting my high school classmate as a "friend."
Now that I have this (modest, and frankly, boring) blog started, I'm having writer's block. My goal was to make a forum to share with my family and close friends, and now that it's started, I'm thinking: What on earth is exciting enough for me to put on here? Is even beginning this blog some sort of narcissistic tendency making itself known? There are also my more basic questions-How do I get this font on this picture instead of above it? How do I get rid of these unseemly polka dots? (Any HTML knowledge you can pass along is greatly appreciated, FYI...)
My hope is that all beginning bloggers have these doubts. While I'm not a huge technology lover, I do love how modern technology has made it so easy to keep up with, and feel close to, people we care about who are far away or whom we don't get to see often. So that is my only goal with this blog, and I'll try to remember that when I feel particularly lame and deficient. Please be sure to leave me plenty of comments and whatnot telling me what is going on with your life, since that's the whole point!
I apologize for my ramblings, but I think that's going to happen a lot on here....
