How does one start when one is starting

I am almost done starting.

Got most of my linking handled. I wept kittens over deciding my favorite books and films. And I've yet to put content into my 'Navigate' section.

The birth of the blog started like:

Woke up feeling slightly guilty about holidays and sleeping in (mind you it was late when I turned in).

Did my Tai Chi Chi Kung and some other stuff which is supposed to make me feel really good, especially when going through the MT user manual on how to set up a first entry.

Wished I was eating icecream with the lovely chocolate sauce that my partner has invented (we have a food business--hospitality is full of artists).

Made myself a chicken miso soup - a great resource for conquering the day ahead.

Wondered how I was going to put all that I was interested in communicating in a blog without overwhelming anyone -- I have the same kind of problem with my social life.

Checked the Ms Snark agent site and knew for sure that I did not have what it takes to be a literary agent--she's doing a synopsis-readathon with comments which gives a great window into the other side. I now feel a new respect for these guys.
