Engineering Miracles

Today is a rare day, not only because of the date, but because when I woke up it was so cold and gray all I wanted to do was stay in and be cozy and watch Lifetime Christmas movies and not go to work…and then work got cancelled. Serendipitous! Only instead of leaping into a pair of sweatpants and gleefully cackling through over-engineered romantic slapstick and schmaltz, I apparently consented to let my computer eat my morning, and that morning has consisted of me forming the resolve to finally start posting on my blog. There's an array of sites I've bookmarked for inspiration purposes that have, instead, served to intimidate me out of bothering to write anything, but today for some reason none of them seemed all that great. Perhaps today I just care less. Either way, the Band-Aid has been ripped off, the seal has been broken, the Rule of Three has been invoked and cannot be left hanging. From here on out it will be all essays, reviews, musings, and perhaps the occasional seasonally-appropriate holiday limerick. Welcome aboard.
