My First Entry... My journal to the moon.

Here I am, at four in the morning, wide awake and pensive. So, what better to do than start a Blog. You may be sitting there thinking "Journal to the moon? What's that about?"... so I'll tell you.

When I was a teenager, I was very angsty.  I thought that there wasn't anyone in the world that could relate to what I was going through, and therefore remained secluded to myself most of the time. My only solace was the moon... I would go out onto our back deck and sit, smoking my mothers stolen cigarettes, and talk to the moon for hours. It didn't matter how hot or cold it was out, I sat and talked, just letting things roll out of my mouth to the only... let's say... thing... that I thought would listen without judgment. I spoke to the moon about everything... boys, my feelings, my family, my desire to cut, and even my dog.

I'll be honest, I wrestled with what to call this blog for over an hour, until I stepped away from my laptop and went outside to smoke... not my mothers stolen cigarettes this time... and there it was. The Moon. In all it's brilliance and wonder... my old friend. It then occurred to me that it had been ages since I sat down and just talked to the moon. I don't know now what made me stop talking... just that I did. Maybe it was because I never got a response... maybe I felt that it just stopped listening. Who knows. What I do know... is that it's high time that I did start talking to the moon again... which is the point of this blog. You, my reader, will act the part of the moon... and I... well, I guess I'll be me. Feel free to add comments, or whatever have you. I hope you enjoy my ramblings, as I'm sure that's what they'll be for some time, until I get some bearing on what I REALLY want this blog to be about. Thank you for taking the time to read... who knows, perhaps you'll learn a bit about me in the process.
