The husband-ator (my action-hero man of a spouse) has been pushing me to start a blog for a while.  
And finally it's off the ground.  But still I am beset by the nagging feeling that "blogging" is one of the 
ultimate acts of self-aggrandizing - that is, that we market and trumpet and package ourselves to the 
world in a blog and that it's banal at best and grandiose at worst.
Sigh.
Maybe I am wrong.  It can be quite fun to visit a friend's blog and "peek" into their life.  Is this what 
we are offering through our posts - glimpses into who we are?  
Perhaps I'll just brew a cup of herbal tea and go for a walk.  This philosophical posturing will pass. :)
