An unoriginal introduction

Call me K. That's it. K. I'd prefer to remain anonymous, well hidden from the men in white coats who could quite legitimately take me away at any moment, so K it is.

I recently changed the name of the blog. I had this whole poetic autumn theme going on, but once I saw the tone my blog was taking, I decided to keep it simple and non-poetic. Besides, I fucking hate poetry, who was I trying to fool into thinking I had any culture?

Fall is, by far, my favorite out of all of the seasons. I adore the changing leaves, the cooler weather, the freshly stocked school supplies in the aisles of WalMart and Staples...it's just a fantastic time of year, and those who challenge me on this point will be stabbed in the eye with a newly sharpened #2 pencil.

Fall allows me to hide in my favorite bulky cable knit sweaters. Sweaters are a chubby girl's best friend. Summer is a hellish time for chubby chicks; leg-baring shorts, short sleeved shirts that show off the ghostly white upper arms...my only salvation this year was the fact that capris came back into fashion. I can deal with showing off a couple of shins and an occasional ankle. Daring, I know. I can be a real showy whore when I want to be. Ankle fetish porno beckons.

Since fall is coming, I thought this a perfect time of year to finally start my blog. If you decide to come back after reading this horrendously unoriginal introduction, you'll be exposed to stories of job hunting, a shaky marriage, feelings of general inadequacy and the pooping habits of small children. Who knows, maybe my life will become more interesting as the blog progresses...hell, I'll probably throw in a bit of juicy fiction here and there...so pull up a chair, it's bound to improve.
