A transition, I hope

I'm thinking it might be a good idea to change the way I use Dreamwidth. Here are some of my goals:

• Post more frequently.
• Post on a wider variety of topics: not almost always about politics and, in particular, about that awful man in the White House.
• Take a more informal approach: closer to stream of consciousness, less like I was trying to write a paper for an academic journal.
• More often, post about personal stuff.

In aid of all that, I am also experimenting with using a different "technology" for posting.  Probably more like the way that most other folks do it: just type my post into the window here on the site, using the "Rich Text" tab.

(You see, I have a well-established tendency to convince myself that I need to do things the hard way.  Or, I should say, a hard way; often, I invent my own.)

So we'll see how it goes.
