Now come the days of the Blog.
And Trailhobbit said: Let there be Blog -- and lo! there was Blog. And Trailhobbit saw that it was good.

Mission (...quest...thing...) statement
Why does a 19-year-old, liberal, Tolkien-loving, nature-worshipping anthropology student need a blog? I am not especially well-informed or interesting. Nor am I particularly humorous, at least not intentionally. Nobody will learn anything from reading this blog. Actually, nobody will probably read this blog.

But I digress. I love writing, and my New Year's resolution was to write every day. This seems like a way to ensure that I write on a regular basis, even if what I'm writing seems incredibly irrelevant. We'll see how long it lasts.
