10/29/02 10:16 pm A Brief Disclaimer : This is probably going to turn out like somewhat of a cross between a welcome note and a rant...I'm aggravated, I'm PMSing, but I need to write, so here goes.
Greetings!
I've noticed that my website has been getting a lot of traffic lately, because a lot of people have been commenting to me about it. And quite frankly, I'm sick of hearing that, yeah my writings good, but "It sounds like you've been through a lot of shit."
I started building this website when I was 14, roughly 5 years ago. I haven't been updating it so much lately, because rather than just sit around and whine about how miserable my life is, I've actually been out there living it -- fucking things up horrendously for awhile, but things are finally starting to come together. I'm starting to reach a level of comfort -- not complacency by far; I'm bipolar (i.e., manic depressive) and medicated or not, I can't stand still for two seconds without a cause.
I plan on doing some major renovations to this website. It's still going to be somewhat autobiographical, of course (I'd be up the river Denial without a paddle if I ever said I wasn't a hopeless egocentrist), but I'd also like to use it as a vehicle to promote my causes, rather than just my interests. Yeah, I'm growing up a little. Maybe I'm gonna be selfish too, get a little publicity for myself in the process...but my html's a little rusty, so we'll just have to wait and see.
My goal for right this session is to get an updates section goin on and maybe, if it's not too late, get some basic organization goin on, maybe even do a little writing on what's been happening in my life these days, furnish my visitors with some experience, strength, and HOPE instead of keeping my personal hell in the foreground. I'm gonna get to work now...and we'll just see what happens ;-)
Peace and light,
~Loryn~
