updates

before i began this blog in april of last year i had two other blogs. one was on my now defunct myspace page and the other was a livejournal. so today, in an effort to have all my thoughts in one place, and to see my transformation over time, i copied most of those blog entries and post-dated them here. there are 26 entries ranging from july29, 2005 - january 5, 2007. i think it's pretty exciting.
