gumlia said so

although i have adamantly avoided this narcissistic form of self expression in the past

i have been influenced and thus inspired by the overseas adventures of m. lopez aka jaM,

the musings of dear richard, 

and the witty media critiques of the renowned scuttlebutt author herself, c. gumlia

so here i begin

here i tell all

here i finally let you in

and although i once protected the severity of my insecure mind

and never would dare such a vulnerable venture 

gumlia gave me her approval 

so that makes everything ok 

ok
