I wonder why I think that new blog will make me more literate in mental musings than the old one. Those pesky chances of reinventing oneself, I suppose. Like hitting a 'refresh' button on my state of mind and ability to write out the highway net in my brain.

I found another reader buddy! I hope. At least books #1 on either side have been exchanged. I liked mine.

Speaking of reader buddies... I think I need to get back on goodreads.com and check out Kerren's lists. And start my own, good things fall through my memory cracks when all the other daily noise takes over.

Florida Saturday. I'm looking forward to Maya exploring the Gulf beach, and to catching up with family. I hope this is productive... Dad, sister, and alleged future brother-in-law are coming as well.

We've opened the season on Baby #2. I'm not looking forward to pregnancy, not one of those women who allegedly 'glow' and feed on happy pregnant thoughts... I just bear the loss of control that pregnancy brings, while realizing the tremendous benefit of its result. I hope it's 1) soon, 2) healthy, 3) NOT multiples, and 4) a boy. I like the thought of having a chance to raise a boy and a man, it'll be too new to me. And I'm sure Maya could use a brother in life.

I'm such a social hermit that an opportunity of a fresh friendship draws me in with a giant sucking sound. So few people that I trust to be interested in me. Some hereditary insecurity or some such, I suppose.

OK, enough for now.
