Hello, you[1].

November 12, 2020

I wasn't really sure what to expect when I signed up for gemlog.blue, but here I am. And, if I may be bold and assume anybody is reading this - here YOU are. I'm glad we're here right now. In my present, I am talking to you, who exists in the future. But that's all in the past, at least for you. Meanwhile I'm sitting here. Time travel is neat.

I wish I had some grand introduction post, but I haven't logged into my livejournal since 2015 and I'm a bit rusty. What do I even say? It's hard to find your voice when you're shouting into the void. But this is the coziest void I've ever looked into, so I guess it's alright if I start with a whisper.

I'm not a programmer, I don't know what rsync even means, and I appreciate gemlog.blue for helping make the small internet accessible while I grind XP for my nerd skill. I don't know what that means either, I just play animal crossing and internet chess.

I'm sleepy, so I'm going to dip and get some sleep. Longer entry later. Or never. I guess time will tell. You're from the future, how's it looking?

[1] if you're a human and your eyes are processing this text right now - it's you!! You're the one! You don't win anything, but at least I'm not filling up your browser asking you to subscribe to my newsletter. Gosh, what a rude way to introduce yourself. It's like, hey, umm.. I've never been to your blog before, and I don't really care about your newsletter, or your lifestyle. I don't want you to email me every Tuesday just so I can be the first to know about new content. I just wanted to learn how to fold fitted sheets because my mama never taught me. Your blog was the first search result that wasn't a long video or an SEO'd to heck receptacle for ad space.. my hopes were crushed in twenty seconds, which is how long it took for the page to load, for the pop ups to be cleared, and for me to get to the bottom of the post. Thats right, the bottom, where you "offer" your "free ebook" full of simple home tips. All I need to do is provide my email address. Do you want a key to my house, too? You're asking so much of me. You don't even know me like that. I don't want you to, if I'm being fully honest. And I still dont know how to fold these damn sheets.
