2011. I've never actually accomplished the completion of a New Year's Resolution; except when I went through that phase after college where I resolutely attempted to accomplish nothing. That worked out well. So, for this year, I set goals that are supposed to make me feel like an active member of society. What better way to become an involved citizen than to--that's right-BLOG!
I have wanted to do this for a long time, but I just had a child, before that taught full time, etc. I just want to set up a cyber-closet full of all my proverbial laundry. Is that narrow enough for a blogging topic? No? Too bad. So this will be partly reflections on the day-to-day as a new mother, some creative writing that just needs to be somewhere other than piled between dusty covers under the coffee table, observations of art, etc. I called this the Clamorlogue because if there's one way to describe me, it's frenetic. My life is filled with noise. The cadence of a hungry child, the thumps and thuds of my apartment neighbors, the inner-workings of a prototypical machine of a partnership, and MUSIC. Oh, how we love music around here. My baby girl actually wakes up if it's too quiet at naptime.
I guess if I had a goal for this new year, it would be consistency--to consistently be frenetic, even. To embrace and behold. Right now, I am besotted with my life. I never thought I'd be there. So, here's to 2011 and each and every noisy day. I hope you enjoy!
