This is an Exercise

So I'm going to begin taking a kind of log, as it were, of my daily life, interesting or not (you decide). A log on the world wide web. One could call it a weblog - "blog," even.

I call it an exercise. If I'm not going to exercise my body, I might as well do something with my mind. I think that writing is as good as anything. Maybe I'll take up daily Sudoku puzzles, while I'm at it. It's also the title of an album - "This is an Exercise" by Anna Oxygen. I'm not really familiar with the album (I have one track from said album, to which I am listening right now) or any of the rest of Ms. Oxygen's repertoire, so for now it's just a piece of trivia.

I think that the only premise to this exercise, the only requirement, is that I write something every day - and I know that a certain reader of this log will keep me on track where that is concerned. Also, please feel free to inform me of any "misuse" of language on my part. I place the word in quotation marks because as far as informal writing goes, I believe there is no misuse of language as far as the meaning is unambiguously conveyed and understood. I reserve the right to change any of my so-called beliefs as well and would welcome and encourage all attempts to challenge them.

(An opera by Mozart plays in the backround.)

(I'm not kidding, and I simply started to play my music collection on "Shuffle" - à propos, n'est-ce pas?)

So without further adieu, I welcome you to my blog. Let the music begin!
