First!

 This is the first post on my new blog.  Someone should reply with some snarky comment.

With this blog, I hope to post at least once a week, sometimes more, about different things that have caught my attention.  Some of these things will be controversial and some of them may make various people upset and angry.  I do not apologize for this, but will warn you that if you are easily offended, you may want to go elsewhere.

I am calling this my Jar because the idea is to have a jar full of random things written on slips of paper, one of which I will pull from the jar once a week and write about.  I will sometimes have photographs that I write about, too, or that will highlight my posts, and will be posting recipes, stray thoughts and various other things.

Now, a bit about me.  I am a biologically female, pan-sexual person, who recently celebrated an anniversary of my 30th birthday.  I have one living child and eight that died before they were old enough to be born.  My favorite TV show is X-files, followed closely by Grimm.  Other than that I don't really watch TV.  I love to cook, hate to clean up afterward, love cats (tigers are my totem animal) and will tolerate certain dogs, but after some very bad experiences with large dogs, being around them is difficult for me.  I believe that birds should not be kept in cages, but should be free and in the wild.

Anything else you want to know about me, feel free to ask.  I will answer almost any question.

I am looking forward to writing this blog and hope that it can live up to my expectations.
