(Oh look! Bright shiny objects! Hmm, this is gonna be tougher than I thought.)<\/p>\n<p>Anywho, this blog needs to start being about something. So I started thinking &#8230; what did I want it to be about &#8211; what do I care about, think others care about and think I have something to say about?<\/p>\n<p>And then I remembered: Oh yah!<a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/reader\/shared\/user\/01198585959390986136\/label\/WASH\" target=\"_blank\"> Washington DC (Wash) <\/a>and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/reader\/shared\/user\/01198585959390986136\/label\/words\" target=\"_blank\">Writing (Words)<\/a>.

Once you&#8217;re on the WASH or WORDS page&#8230; well, frankly there&#8217;s a LOT you can do there. Advanced beginners probably know all about subscribing and &#8220;friending&#8221; but no worries, the theme today is FO. CUS. Focus. So just go, enjoy the linky-links and let me know what you think.<\/p>\n<p>Let me know if you have a linky link for me, something great you&#8217;ve read on Washington or writing, broadly defined for now.
