And so it begins...

Greetings, cyber world! (Whoever you are.)

This is my arbitrary first post where I detail what the hell I’ll be blogging about. And if I’m being brutally honest (as I often am), I have absolutely no idea.

What do I envision for this blog? Well, first off, I want somewhere to bitch. Everyone needs to release some steam once in awhile, and I am certainly no different. So, this blog will be primarily dedicated to my rants and raves. (Like, for instance, this morning when my electricity was shut off an hour before a big interview. Instead of doing the mature adult thing and getting on the phone with the electric company and sorting out the situation, want to know what my first thought was? OMG! Hair emergency! I am not going to be able to blow dry my hair today. Ah, such is the life of a divo.)

Secondly, I want somewhere to share my juicy stories… because Lord knows I have tons of ’em! If you know me in real life, you already know that I like to talk about myself… A LOT. You’d also know that my life is full of drama. Instead of boring my friends with the juicy details of every one of my hook-ups, instead of calling up my fav girlfriend and gabbing for an hour about the latest sale, I’ll simply post it here and be done with it. Honestly, who needs a psychiatrist when you’ve got a blog to work out all of life’s little problems?

Most importantly, I want this blog to be of the highest journalistic integrity. Kind-of like Carrie Bradshaw’s Sex and the City, minus the fabulous NYC backdrop and relationship advice. Like Dr. Drew on Loveline: putting sex in its proper place at the forefront of absolutely every conversation, minus the STIs and serious stuff. Like Dan Savage’s Savage Love, but without the tirades about the importance of the nucleus family. Sharing tidbits like GossipGirl, minus the anonymity (though, I should note, some names in future posts will be changed to protect the innocent.)

Who knows? I might post other random stuff as I see fit. Basically, I’ll post whatever the hell I like, and I know that you are just going to love it.

A little about me… I’m a freelance writer, which is basically the same as being unemployed. I have a lot of time on my hands this summer and a lot of shit to talk (Did I mention that I have a niche for talking shit?). I’m the kind of person who owns eight of the same sweaters in each color (I need options!) and who would rather spend my entire paycheck on $300 Gucci loafers than paying rent or buying groceries (I just chalk it up to the high price of beauty). Basically, I’m a starving student who likes to see my money hanging in my closet (or, rather, on my bedroom floor because I fucking hate laundry.)

Ready or not, world… here comes my blog!

Stay tuned!
