Just Muddling Along

I used to be a computer whiz. Twenty three years ago, I knew all about how computers worked, how to make them do what I wanted. You know, back in the days when DOS was the only real way to navigate, before Windows, highly interactive Microsoft programs, the internet, and most importantly, the internet. Now, I will readily admit that I am a dummy. I manage with Google, email, and online shopping, but the rest of it leaves my head spinning. Html, blog rolls, rss feeds... these may as well be written in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics for all the sense they make to me.

I have a problem with my seeming lack of ability to make sense of all of this. You see, I have a tendancy to be quite the over-achiever, and have visions of an awesome blog, with all the bells and whistles. Unfortunately, the current state of my knowledge doesn't support these visions. I'm hoping that time, some 'hands-on' trial and error, and a little patience (which, admittedly seems to be lacking in my bag of attributes) will correct this problem. However, I make no promises, so consider yourselves warned if I can't live up to any expectations you may have if you stumble across my blog.

I feel the same way! This blog thing is so new to me, too. I hope one day I understand it. Congratulations on jumping out into this blog world.
