First and Foremost

   How true: “the hardest part of anything is starting it.” I'm both thrilled and nervous to finally start blogging! This has been months in the making— rather, months of building my courage to just do it. I suppose this is something of a ‘Grand Opening’… and who knows more about those than our good friend Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm-Flailing Tube Man?   


       (I figured a ribbon-cutting was too fancy.) If you aren't familiar with Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man... I'm so sorry. Youtube it and your life will be that much more enriched.
   I want you all to know that I am well aware of my mixed company of an audience. You will range from my family members and close friends to former teachers to perfect strangers. I can never please all of you, so in my mind you all cancel each other out. This furnishes me with a blank canvas, so I don’t plan on holding anything back. I will be sharing with you what is on my heart, on my mind, or just dangling from the end of my funny bone. It's fun to provide you all with a window into my brain, lending a factory-like tour of where the Paigeisms begin and end. Some get tossed, some are recycled, and some are little pieces of passion I use toward doing my part in changing the world.
  Feel free to follow me through this online thing. No, seriously, there's a button at the top of the page. Follow me.

  1. FINALLY!!!!!!!! Love it and love you! Hooray for courage - Eleanor would be so proud :) Also, great display of taste in knowing that ribbon cutting would be a little too fancy. I would expect no less, of course. Our family has a history of impeccable taste. However, I would have approved your making a cake for the occasion...and then sending it to me. Just sayin'. <3

  2. So I waited 10 hours in line for this. Midnight! It's been kinda cold since sundown, especially in the tux I rented for the big ribbon cutting. If I'd known there would be so many wind bags with clown faces dressed in jump suits, I could have worn mine and fit right in.

    Alas, it's been worth the wait. It's not very often I get a front row seat as "little pieces of passion" come flying by on their way to "changing the world." Yes, this launch is even more exciting than that night-time rocket thing in Florida! In fact, these Paigeisms appear to be so bright, I need to grab my sunglasses. I'll be right back. Carry on.

  3. Hurray, Paige! The long-awaited blog is here! I am very proud of you! Very cool! As Michael would say "You know what I want this to be cutting-edge, I want it to be fast, quick cuts. You know, youthful, sort of, um, MTV on crack kind of thing."
