A few technical details

So, I figured out how the comments thing works. Sorry about that. All should be able to post comments now, and they are "moderated," so you will presumably not see them until I check my email and approve it as containing no profanity or other wackiness which I'm sure would be the result of anonymous flamers (meaning e-Flame, not a reference to any sexuality choices) and not any of the wonderful humans to whom I sent my inaugural blog email. Speaking of whom, I did so from webmail while in Portland, and brilliantly did not save the list I created, and of course being the sensitive little creature that I am I put you all in the bcc to protect you from harm, SO... I can't really email exactly the same list to tell you that I've fixed stuff. So I'll email the ones who actually noted that and the rest of you I will hope are still reading.

Last and perhaps mostly, a few have complained that I seem to think this blog will get me out of the responsibility to actually write to each of you. Heavens, no! This is intended as a place for me to wax babblotic (hopefully not idiotic) at any random point of day and not clog people's in-boxes with the results. I think this will actually free me up to send real, personal emails to people and not feel guilty having not sent something to "the carlie list" in a long time. Further, I will probably not be using this blog for "what's going on in our lives" stuff unless it seems interesting and germane. There's just too much potential for me to embarrass myself (further).

Thank you for reading and (trying) commenting!

Thanks for fixing the comments thingy. I have been inspired by you to also start a blog. I'll start it once in MA. I still hope that one day maybe you will move there too. I know, I know but a girl has to have her dreams.
