Moo! The Musings of a Plaid Cow

I’m just chilling at home tonight, but when I visit Holy Grounds, they call my Randy Jalapeño.

Many years ago, when I was in a government review of a project I was working on, the reviewers were painted as “rock chuckers”. It is very easy to chcuck rocks at things. It is hard to create the thing that can have rocks chucked at it.

At the start of 2024, I joined a mailing list for Rands Writing Prompts. And then I promptly ignored all of the emails and never started writing. In making a new push to clean out my backlog of email, I have discovered that the end of the mailing list was almost a year ago.

The hardest part of the the creation process is going from nothing to something. From a blank page to a post. From Zero to One. And then it gets easier. I hope.

I am continuing to be amazed about how complex it is just to get Wordpress setup to put together a simple blog format site. I just want a place to write. I don’t need to worry endlessly about search engine optimization. Or block editors. Or anything complex. I want a text field that I can enter short form text into and have it show up like a decent blog.
