Hello, folks. I ran across this site by searching “online diary,” because that’s exactly what I was looking for. But now that I see it’s a community, I felt I should make some sort of introduction. So, hello.

It’s funny–I wanted to create a diary just to process my feelings, but I also want to publish my thoughts, even if not for anyone I actually know. A strange urge. I guess it’s a utilitarian urge. Writing seems like less of a waste of time if someone might read it.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A STREAM OF CONSCIOUSNESS. I want a place to put all the rage and dark, existential crap that I have to repress during normal life, because I am testing a theory. If I have a place to put the thoughts of the rebellious side of me, will I be able to be more disciplined and intentional for the rest of the time? So, this is a place for my id (I say that because at first pass it looks like I’m saying I.D., as in identification, but without capitalizing it or putting the periods in. But what I mean is id like id, ego, superego, yada, yada).

Okay, so let me get out of my friendly, cheerful persona and go DO THIS. Have a nice day. :)
