So, for a long time I've been avoiding doing the whole blogging thing for a number of reasons. Foremost among them is that I just can't handle the pressure! Unlike my blogger-type friends, I am not a hilarious person, I don't have any cute babies to post pictures of or fun toddler stories, I don't do digi-scrapbooking (and actually hardly ever take pictures at all...), and just don't have very many interesting things to say about my life. I'm a graduate student in physics--and even *I* am bored with my research these days! Pretty much everyday is similar to the last around here. Not that we have a bad life--in fact, life is very good to us. But, I just couldn't see why people would be very interested to read a blog post from boring little me.
But I feel kind of left out, and my friends tell me they wish I had a blog so they can keep up with what I'm up to (becuase apparently, email is too old fashioned nowadays.) So I am creating a blog, but I'm offering fair warning to any potential readers that it may very well be the boringest blog they have ever read, so no one *has* to read it unless they really want to. I'm not going to try to make my posts astounding and insightful or witty or anything. I'm just going to write, sometimes, and I'm just going to write whatever I want. And you, readers, can just read whenever you want but only *if* you want. Deal? Deal.

So you need to quit school. It's our 10 year high school reunion this year. So I figure you have been woring your butt off for the past 10 years. The only break from school you have had was that lousy 1.5 years for a mission. And that's not a break from anything!
So, you basically rock all the way when it comes to my firefox fixing. But I couldn't follow the pathway you gave me. Under my name, there is no "Application Data" that I can find. I'll keep looking for it. I'm really excited to fix it. I KNEW you would know how to do it.
And you rock!! I'm so excited to hear about the many adventures of MT!!
YAY!!!
I was nervous starting my blog because I also thought it would be boring and generally not as cool as most other blogs I read. My first post was about names I was considering for my blog, and I thought "Number Two Pencil" would be good because my blog was probably going to be worth erasing. ;-)
Thanks for starting a blog, 'cause I like keeping up with people this way.
So dude. I was in Los Alamos last week, and they now have free public transportation. And I was thinking that I might have to take the trolley downtown with my good friend MT to get hot chocolate or banana cream pie (who am I kidding; both) at Hill Diner or somethin'. Maybe next Christmas, when hot chocolate is more appealing and we are both in town. ;-)
You are adorable. It was so great to "run" into you today. Hurrah for your blog.

HOORAY!!! A blog by MT! Doesn't *everyone* think their own life is boring? Of course, you and Beth are kind enough to actually think about other people's interest. I just make a boring blog and EXPECT everyone had better read it, boring or no, because it's about ME!
But seriously, I'm so excited to keep in better touch with you. Sometimes as I wander down a grocery store isle or talk to interns or tell someone about how Danny and I dated, I think about you and wonder what you are up to. I know, random but feel LOVED because I do think about you and I'm so excited to hear all about your life.
Oh dear. Sister, when will you understand that you are both witty and interesting?! Fight those Tonks genes! :P
