How's My Driving?

Okay, so I've been behind the wheel of this blog for several months now, and I've been posting weekly for a few months. Recently, I've noticed that I seem to have more than the two loyal readers that I used to. In an effort to make it easier for new visitors to check out older posts that might interest them and to help me evaluate where I've been and where I want to go with this thing, I'm posting a little review this week. Click on through for Established Disestablishmentarian 101.

I started at the beginning with my reasons for starting the blog.

I've posted about how much I loved Luke and Noah on As the World Turns, how much I was pissed off by the treatment of Luke and Noah, and how much I was disgusted by Luke, Noah, and Ameera.

I've written about my love of City of Heroes/City of Villains.

I've expounded upon my obsession with The Golden Girls.

I've told the ugly story of the guy with whom I fell in love in relation to Luke and Noah.

I've argued why Madonna belongs in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and listed Madonna's Top Ten Songs.

I've talked about hate groups that disguise themselves as family groups.

I've covered my distaste for weddings and celebrated the legalization of same-sex marriage in California.

I've detailed coming out to my best friend in college.

And I've reported how my mother tried to die on me (twice).

I haven't listed everything that I've written, just the more substantial entries that I've done. There are still tidbits scattered throughout that you can search for like Easter eggs, because if you're anything like me, you're looking for something to fill the time in between those annoying things that you have to do in order to keep this thing called life going in a somewhat respectable manner.

If you look over the blog, you can see that I've played with different formats and ideas, although you might not see just how much I've played with them, since I've scrapped a few failures. I'm a lot more savvy with this stuff now than when I started, although I still think I have a long way to go. I freely welcome comments and advice. (That little comments link down there isn't for nothing, you know.) If you have any views on anything I've said, feel free to send them my way. If you have any advice or ideas for things about which you might like to see me write or features for the page, let me know. I'm in a period of re-evaluation right now as far as the blog is concerned. I need to decide where to take it and on what kinds of things I want to concentrate. Don't panic, devoted fans! I have every intention of continuing it, so you'll have something to fill those two empty minutes every week of your lives if not more. I'm just not quite sure how yet. I am considering going full time instead of weekly. Oh, not that I will devote full time to it, just that I will post daily or on most days with posts that aren't that substantial, although I would still like to try to post something a bit more substantial once or twice a week. I'm in a bit of a fog right now and waiting for my lighthouse or foghorn to guide me out of it. Unfortunately, I have a feeling that the bulb may be blown and I won't be able to hear the horn over the sound of the screeching from those people being victimized somehow by the gays getting married.

And apropos of nothing, whoever came up with that "Viva Viagra" ad campaign should be taken out, blindfolded, and shot. On second thought, they shouldn't be blindfolded. They should have to see it coming.

Finally, since this is a look back, I've decided to repost all of my Recommended Song Downloads:

I was so happy to come across a fellow nuke fan. Some of the publics response to their storyline shocks me. In any case, I give the show kudos for it!
