Hi, my name is, well, I will get to that later. I am a chronic blog restarter. For the nth time since 1997, I have restarted my blog. Personal blogging has always been a weird thing for me and I have struggled with it since I began blogging in the late 1990s. Yeah, back in the day when we had regular ol HTML pages. I had even moved onto using scribble.nu for a time before moving onto Livejournal which has been my only constant over the past decade despite my declining usage of its services.

Whew.

So, here I am. Again. Now I will be up front and state that I am a pretty paranoid person. There are some people who if they are either keen or have been invited into my own little demented mind, will know who I am and most likely the real name behind the written words. I have gone by mreh on Livejournal since the mid 2000s and Calaera on many other platforms since 2003 related to gaming. Here? I’ll go by Calaera, too, just to make it simple.
