Really, the problem with offering too many choices, or options, is that when you ask for opinions… generally, everyone will choose something different. Then, you are left, still unsure, because now… you have one vote for each of the choices. ~ugh.
See, like I said, I’m renaming the blog. So, I’ve posted a poll on a different journal of mine, and have asked a few people their opinions. Of course, everyone has choosen something different. So, now I have 1 vote for each of the following: Say When, Little Earthquakes, The Glitter Remains, In Omnia Aparatus.
… continues on with madness.
Dear Self,
Just as an FYI of things to ponder.
My December
Beautiful Silence
Tragic Beauty
Unwritten Symphony
Simple Complexity
*Little Earthquakes
*Say When
-Catch and Release
Coquettish
Write And Wrong
*In Omnia Paratus (Latin; Ready for Anything)
*The Glitter Remains
……..
Geez, the list keeps getting longer. Will the madness end?
I find myself wanting a new blog name. Yes, once again. I can’t help it. Sometimes, things just all of a sudden don’t seem to *fit* me. I need a new design for the blog too, sometimes I’m really growing tired of the flowers.
Both the name and the design, are something that I’m not able to find one where I truly like a lot.
I started my blog, here with WordPress using “Bacardi Blonde”. Then, I decided that didn’t really *fit* me. So, I took a poll. I ended up choosing “Catch and Release” because that is what this blog really is… a catch and release of emotions, thoughts, and various random things that float through my mind. I find myself wondering though, if that truly is the *best* name. I know, I probably create more stress over this for myself, than I do for anyone else.
However, my mind has been tossing around a few names, and I know, you hate change, but guess what?…. I seem to love it. With that said, I’m deciding amongst these names… who knows, I’ll probably end up keeping it the same, anyway. 
Catch And Release, Write & Wrong, She Will Be Loved, and as you may or may not have noticed, I changed from ‘citygirl’ to ‘luckygirl’. I think that luckygirl draws on my love of Vegas and helps create a positive site for me to keep my focus on when things get sad.
So, I’ve been a bad blogger. I had such high hopes, of blogging everyday. Sadly, life is tooooo crazy to be able to do that. So, I’m taking a little motivation from Some Girl and am going to try to blog every other day, at least. I’m not quite ambitious enough to do the blogging every single day for a whole year. I’ll set my standards a little easier than that. I can’t promise the entries will all be fabulous, but there WILL be an entry, at least.
However, I won’t blog on April 30, 2007 – other than that, be sure to check back for my silly ramblings. I’m sure it will be … interesting. At least for me.

I’ve been wondering lately which direction I want my blog to go. Over the years, I’ve noticed that anytime that I have a public journal I tend to censor myself. I’ve wondered why I do this, and though I try not to… I find myself doing it anyway.
So, that leads me to wonder… why do I care? It is my blog after all. I am an adult. I have real emotions, real thoughts, real desires.. .and while I may not be that single gal living it up in a big city, I’m still a woman. So I’m curious… how do other bloggers get over the silent-monster and just put it all out there?
Maybe I should just put a disclaimer up…. “Warning: This blog may make you mad, it make offend, and you may find it socially unacceptable. But.. it’s all me.” 
I can’t decide if I’m happy with this WP Theme or not. In a sense, I want to change it – but, I can’t really find one that I like that works exactly like I want it to. So, if you happen to come across my pages during one of my switch arounds, just excuse the mess. *laughs*
Well, for now I think that I’ve decided on the “Title, Theme, etc” for my blog to be Catch and Release. Yes, the title did come to me while seeing the advertisement for the new movie with Jennifer Garner. The idea of the movie appeals to me, and in thinking back on my life, love, relationships, thoughts, etc… it just seemed to fit. In a sense, my blog will be catching my life, emotions… and then releasing them. Now I just need to decide on the design of my blog. ugh. Of course, I’m using the sub title of Beautiful Silence. Thank you TheThinker for your comment and thoughts in my previous post.
I’m not new to blogging. Well, let me rephrase. I’m not new to journaling. I’ve been using LiveJournal for about 5 years or so. And, I’ve always kept a paper journal. Various notebooks have been used for my thoughts and randomness, instead of their original intended use: homework. I am fairly new to ‘blogging’ though. While LJ does hold some inviting things such as the communities, and a large network of being automatically connected… the idea of blog seems to appeal more to me as of late. So, I’m trying it out. I’ll keep the LJ, and the paper journals, of course.. but.. we’ll see how this goes. I’ll be adding more people to my blogroll, and hope that some will eventually add me too. 
Well, time to get off here and finish getting ready. I’m braving the snow and melting icey roads for brunch and a much needed trip to hell.. errm, I mean Wal-Mart.
