"Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be" ~ Elizabeth Barrett Browning

Why I am here, DBQ style. 

Origin: The internet somewhere, theoretically invented by Al Gore. (is that a limitation?) Also an an earworm implanted by a friend of mine. The conversation went something like this. 
         Scene: Panera, 3:00 pm just before the invasion of middle schoolers. 
                    Me: So...Turkey
                    Friend: Yep! If we get good long distance plans we can call each other after 9:00 pm for free     
                    Me: So we'll alternate which one of us is getting the call at 3:00 am, right?           
                    Friend: Of course, you go first. ... Hey, you know those x-files blogs I keep foisting off on you? You should get a live journal! 
                   Me: Right... (I'm not particularly internet conscious, but "O ye of little faith" here I am.)

Purpose:   Primarily to keep in touch with expatriates in Turkey. But also I occasionally feel I have intelligent things to say, and there is a certain satisfaction to supposing someone, somewhere, might read it.  Also, to rant. 
Values: Citing the previously mentioned, occasionally intelligent bits I create, this journal will allow my friends to avoid me sharing in public. (thus, them having to respond politely with, "You know you really aren't Ben Franklin")

Limitations: I'm not Ben Franklin. I live in a middle class family, in a middle sized city, in the middle of the United States of America, I have not yet seen much of the world (Canada, for 15 minutes) and the things that I find profound are often trite, flippant, prejudiced, and written with passion.

I remain, Your humble and obedient servant,

Georgina Sand
