a new leaf

So, I'm kind of torn between using this new template and name or using my new site. I had this idea for making a diary based on the exploits of a supervillain. Neat idea, huh? But now I kind of like the template so much that i want to be able to use it for writing my normal entries too...not that I write in here very often anyway.
Dunno. I'm stumped.
I'm not sure how i feel about keeping an online journal now. I know I should keep some kind of journal...and this is the easiest way...but I just haven't really felt like writing for a while. It's different writing in a journal and writing for a book. One has to be perfect, the other not. One requires creativity and inspiration. The other is just brain matter leaking out of my head onto the computer.
Neat, huh?
Oh. If anyone actually reads this site please be sure to checkout my online survey about bathroom etiquette...the results of which will compose the final chapter in the book I am writing: "The Unwritten Rules of Men's Room Etiquette...Now Written!"
Oh, and since this is the first time I've written in many many months, please know that I love my wife very very much and, aside from doing this for myself, any curious strangers, and any future posterity, I'm also doing this for her. That's how I originally started my diary; it served as another means of commuinicating with my wife when we were still dating. I learned much about her by reading her past entries...and had it not been for that I think it unlikely that i would have gotten so close to her and opened up so quickly to her within the short number of dates we had.
In short, this diary, aside from being a place where i can organize my thoughts, is also a place dedicated to my lovely and talented wife.
I hope I write often and remain inspired to do so.
