beginning

knowing me, who knows how consistent i will be in keeping up with a blog. i know a lot of people who are good at it, i'm just not one of them. so i apologize now.
with that out of the way, i'm hoping this blog will be an easier way for you to keep track of me. if you are reading this i assume it is because my monthly mass emails aren't enough info to satisfy your missing me.
and this blog is just one beginning in a long series. over the next few weeks i will be facing beginnings that include my first real out of college job, an adventure that is mostly uncertain and unknown, and traveling for at least the next two years. maybe luckily for me there are a lot of steps between today and those beginnings.
as of august 18 i will be an official member of OM. i will be in holland for two weeks of training. then i will fly to australia for another two weeks of training. so as of the beginning of september i will be living on a ship and working.
