First post.

Here’s a place to write, something I desperately need. I keep starting blogs and stopping them — hopefully this time it’ll be different (or so I keep telling myself). Either way, I need a place to write a little bit every day; I’ve had a hard time maintaining any skill with writing whatsoever as I don’t stay in practice.

Anyway — here’s something I’ve been doing lately: reading The Ultimate Hitchhiker’s Guide, which is a volume containing the entire Hitchhiker’s Guide series by Douglas Adams. There have been a million reviews on these works by a million people, so writing out my full opinion thus far as not a wise use of time. However, this is my second time through the series, and I have to say it’s extremely fun (even the second time through). I’m currently unwinding after a hard semester at grad school, and a fun read like this is just what the doctor ordered. It’s a fast read and takes little effort to get through, but it’s fun, silly, witty, and Adams knows how to make his readers smile. All in all: quality.
