And so it begins

Well, I've been wanting to have a "serious" blog for some time now. I've mustered up the determination to post here about a current event or some such at least once a week. Maybe more if I get into it. 'Course, this is timed rather badly, since I have a research paper due this week. Oh well.

So we'll start at the beginning (a very good place to start). What's a sleepy idealist, anyway? I'm certainly an idealist. Always have been. But idealism can lead to denial of reality, something else I'm good at (I'll let you draw your own conclusions about that). What I'll be blogging about will likely be me rambling on about what I think on what's going on in this world. I make no guarantees as to the cohesivness and clarity of my arguments, but you'll just have to live with that. Oh, and I like sleep. That's where that came from. It also makes for a cool, absract sounding blog name, and a pretty nifty tagline, too.

So…yeah. Check back often for posts. Maybe.
