First thought: I have a blog.

Second thought: I have a blog?

Vague recollection: André Gide: “Everything has already been said, but since no one listens, it is always necessary to begin again.”

Resolve: To begin. Coming soon—a blog.

Invitation: Tell me anything. This is a genuine request. Send reading and movie tips, recipes (I’m omnivorous), and advice (I believe everything).

Nagging worry: A blog is a dog you have to write.
