Hello?!

You know how sometimes it's been so long since you've called an old friend, that the thought of doing so just seems a little overwhelming?  There's just so much to catch up on, that you feel like it's going to take a l-o-n-g conversation, so until you get that big block of time, you avoid it.  But that big block of time is hard to find.  But you really miss your friend...

Well, my blog is that friend!

So rather than avoid it any longer, I'm just going to do a quick check in.

And then I'll check in again in just a day or two.

And then again.

And so on and so on...

Even if it feels a little awkward, because I've let us get a little too out of touch.

Here's a great thought from Ira Glass, about fighting your way through awkward beginnings.
