About the Blog

I am, by nature, a lazy diarist, a negligent blog owner, and an all around terrible person. I began this blog in January 2011 hoping to at least strike out one of these qualities, and I very nearly succeeded. I committed myself to writing four posts a month for all of 2011, and if September weren’t a month, I totally would have done it. As it was, I completed 48 entries for the year, mostly about things you don’t care about. I can almost maintain that I am not a negligent blog owner. (I am still a terrible person, though.)

In 2012, I have no such lofty expectations. I’ll be posting intermittently, but at least once a month. Gradually, my posts have shifted from musings on why “Pretty Little Liars” is better than “The Good Wife” to reviews of YA books you’ve already read. As my previous mission statement warned, “this blog will not be edifying, enlightening, or even entertaining…but it will make me feel better about myself.” So, look around, if you feel like it, but I apologize up front for the surprising lack of “Golden Girls”-related content. (Yes, in all these months I still haven’t delivered.) I will try to squeeze in a “Back in St. Olaf” story somewhere!
