here goes nothing

I’ve always wanted to capture my thoughts and ideas somewhere to preserve them in case, well … something happens.

This provides that opportunity for me, and it also allows other folks to read this stuff – if they so desire, without having to post this stuff on FB.

Since I’m not a professional writer, I beg anyone “tuning in”, to give me a little slack, until I get the hang of this.

Its both terrifying and exciting at the same time – and, I know I will not be everyone’s “cup of tea”. But, that’s life, right?  Not everyone is going enjoy everything that I think about.

I struggled and struggled trying to find a blog name that wasn’t already taken – it really isn’t as easy as I thought it would be. I read a lot of articles about how to be creative and use a thesaurus and other tools to do it.  Ruminati ends up being my clever attempt at making up a word by tweaking an existing word “Rumination”, and then making it into what I thought would look like a “Latin” looking derivative, but as it ends up – it is just a made up word. “LuminatiRuminati” and “JunkDrawerRuminations” (were a couple of my many initial choices) but they were too long, or were already taken, and they violated the guidelines that I read about which stated – the blog name should be something simple and short – that way,  folks could remember it. I’m not sure how a made up word qualifies for a word that others will remember – LOL.

In any case, I do look forward to sharing my thoughts – I have many of them.

I hope you enjoy them, even though you may not always agree with everything.
