Salve!*

So I've had at least 5 people in the last few months tell me I should start a blog, because apparently having-moved-recently-to-New-York-City-and-trying-to-find-work-in-music-slash-theatre = having an exciting life. And I admit, the prospect of sharing my thoughts on life more publicly than I probably should has grown on me the more I've thought about it. So I caved. Hello! Here I am!

Be forewarned: I am given to purple prose and the excessive use of parentheses. Furthermore, I am inclined to scribble down things that I think at the time are poetical and profound, and it takes some time for me to get over my initial flings with these scribblings and realize how ridiculous I am being. Please bear with me during these unfortunate episodes.

Also, alliteration is my second favorite literary device. Ten points if you know or guess my first favorite; if you can recognize its use, twenty extra points!

As far as I'm concerned, those are the relevant introductory glob** facts, especially since if you are reading this you are most likely well acquainted with me to begin with. Let the wild rumpus start!

*For those of you who did not take four years of Latin (or live with me while I was taking four years of Latin), this means "Hello." Or, more literally, "Be healthy!" That said, rest easy: I am not likely to indulge in classical pedantry on a regular basis on this glob, given that I have forgotten most of it.

**I accidentally mistyped "blog" as "glob" in the first footnote, and I'm kind of enamored with it.
