Well, I’ve finally decided to start up a blog.

My wife asked, “Why do you need a blog? You have Facebook.” And that gave me pause. It was true, with Facebook, I had a network of friends who, in essence, was like my audience.

I asked my friend Rebecca if she had a blog and she talked about how she had tried starting up a few, but that it was difficult to narrow down what her “voice” was; what her “niche” was. Hmm. Yeah, what the hell is my voice? Does it really matter? 

So why start a blog? I’m going to use Half Alien as a way to chronicle my life and the things that are going on in it. Hopefully, I can look back on this in a few years and read about how my kids used to be, the things that were going on at those moments in time and have a decent record of how my life’s evolved. Aw, it’s like a journal!

Anyway, let’s hope I can keep this thing going…
