Months of waffling and denying my desires to create a blog have finally ended, and spectacularly strangely at that. Within an hour of meeting a fine new friend in a randomly selected cafe, she implored me to start a blog, to share my stories with anyone who finds them. If I don't so it, she swore, no one else will.
She's right, of course. It helped her argument that I rewatched Blade Runner two nights ago; Batty's death monologue flew to my mind, that line about all his experiences lost to the ages, like so many tears in the rain. Rutget Hauer allegedly wrote his own dialogue for that scene, perhaps the most infamous of the film.
And so here I am, taking the advice of a freelance web designer AND a fictional android- I can't argue with expertise such as that. About to resume undergraduate studies, about to move to a new apartment downtown, and now possessed of a new creative outlet. Thank you, universe, for unexpected prompts.
