Here goes nothin...

Greetings Interweb! I suppose I will begin my first ever blog entry by telling you all a little bit about myself. I am twenty-four years old and a second year graduate student in the Library and Information Science program at the University of Oklahoma. I clerk part time at a public library and bartend on Friday nights. I have never blogged before, mainly because I have been in school for the past nineteen straight years, and that leaves little time for anything else. Also, my confidence in my ability to think of anything of substance to post for all the world to see is minimal. However, this semester I am enrolled in a course entitled "Design and Implementation of Web Based Systems." To say that this is out of my comfort zone would be an understatement, although I am willing to give it a try. I like learning new things. Other things I like are old country music, words, good conversation, clothes and shoes, cooking, dogs, Oklahoma history, movies, humor, the band Ween, and my friends and family. I promise that there are more interesting posts to follow, which will deal mainly with the information profession, but will also inevitably include my random musings on other unrelated things...

Hi,

This is probably the best blog title you could possibly dream up: is it a quote from something? (If so, I don't recognize it, but I love it!)

I didn't dream it up, I wish I had. I was in Austin for a few days this summer and it was the name of an adorable little boutique I drove by. It was called "Betsy's" (or something like that) "For the Well Dressed and Well Read." Unfortunately, I was with a bunch of gross boys who wouldn't let me check it out... but I did steal the name!
