To the few of you who have been following my blog you might notice that I have deleted all but one post. I have decided to begin anew. I am in a new city, living a new chapter of life, and I need to start afresh.
This blog is still a space outside my head. It is still a place where I can vent my daily groans and share my happy moments. It will still be a place for me to share my Chicago-Times (aka experiences I believe can only happen in Chicago). The only change is that the moments I choose to share will be filtered. I am no longer going to say every little thing that is on my mind. I do that enough in daily conversation and it does not always lead me to the best end. Instead, this blog will share with my readers who I am, how I choose to live my life, what is important to me, and what I learn during this chapter of my future autobiography (Plug: You can pre-order my autobiography on Amazon.com for $39.99, which will be a freaking steal by the time it comes out in 2060 and the American dollar is forth .005 cents. Yes, I am joking).
Anyway, today was a wonderful day. I am re-reading Augusto Boal's Theatre of the Oppressed. It has been awhile, and since I have basically decided to dedicate my life to Boal's theories and practices I figured I should refresh my memory before I tell possible employers that I know what I am talking about.
I took my book to the coffee shop in my building and ended up meeting a really nice man who convinced me that blogging is a great way to network. For the past month I have been trying to master on-line networking. I understand Facebook. I am getting better at Twitter although I should probably have someone sit down and explain it to me in detail. Now, I am going to pursue networking through my blog.
This is only the beginning. Thanks for reading.
