Virgin Territory

Blogs, blogs, and more blogs...after a friend (who worked with me at a software company in Portland) sent me the link to her blog, I was intrigued. As a lover of language, and that doesn't mean I edit my friends' emails or chastise individuals who butcher the English language, I decided it was time for my suppressed, creative soul to venture out into the Red Light District in the Big City...and pop the proverbial writer's cherry.

I picked the title, "Ferrannini's Fishbowl," because I'm a Pisces, but also because I feel as if I'm observing more than saying anything aloud. And, I feel like I'm fed this great material that I never use in my banter, my pseudo-standup transgressions that result when the work queue is low or, at home, when I try to be funny.

When I was in high school, a teacher pointed out the Internet as the next big thing and that all of us should seek employment in technology. Well, after a layoff, a crappy job, and a job that was great (but burned me out), I feel I am somewhat settled and ready to bless the world with my sarcastic stories.
