there's a first time for everything

i've been able to resist jeremy's requests of keeping up with a blog for quite awhile now. i don't see myself as very digitally savvy, nor have i an interest in all things twitter, flickr, buzz, blogger and the like. i don't want to be so arrogant as to think that the world has any interest in what my life is like, my opinions on certain things, what sorts of things i'm interested in, etc. but for those of you who are good at keeping up with people this particular way, i figured i'd give it a try for you, and for my persistent and very awesome digitally hipster husband.  i guess this is, however, a better option than the traditional yearly christmas letter. no offense to those who keep up with those traditional yearly christmas letters, of course. i admire your diligence and consistency. we'll see how this goes!
