Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

In response to something I'd written about Election 2008, a friend had said, "Didn't know u wrote like that."

The truth is that I really didn't know I wrote like that either. I had obtained a degree in journalism and a degree in history. The things I had written had reflected that training.
But I wanted to fuse all that together into something that mixed facts with lite humor; something that channeled what I really felt; something that pokes fun at the absurdities of life.

Writing the conventional news story had become something I was increasingly ill-suited for--always looking for that man-bites-dog story.

I'd rather come up with the man-bites-society/society-realizes-it's-wrong/society-changes story.

But for some stupid reason I had waited. I originally had the idea for this blog last year, but kept putting it aside. Tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow.

But our ideas are important. And I came to realize: If there's a savior for me, it will come through my words.
