I thought this whole "blogging" thing was supposed to be easy - but, on the first day of my new adventure, I picked THE site that was going to have problems EACH AND EVERY TIME I'VE TRIED TO POST. This is attempt number three.

And no, I did not save any of those other posts. I work in publishing. You'd think I'd have learned to have a backup.

You've been waiting with bated breath for this blog. You know you have. So many times you've asked yourself, "I wonder what Anna Marie is up to today?" or "What is really going on in Melissa's head?" or even, "Does Jason ever speak more that two words put together?"

Obviously, I can't answer all of those questions in a single place. All in good time, my readers, all in good time.

All that I ask is, if you're reading, PLEASE let me know what you think. There's nothing worse than putting your innermost thoughts out for everyone to read, and then learning that no one wants to read them.

In the words of GRITS, here we go ....
