Wow...a blog...now what do I do?

Hahaha...here I am, attempting to set up a "blog", which I've, until recently, thought to be one of the stupidest and most annoying web-words out there. But ya know what? I like the computer. I love to type. And I've always wanted to keep a journal, even moreso since I've become a mommy in May, 2007. So what the heck, I'll give it a try. Can I be technically savvy enough to figure out such supposedly simple things as how to put in my profile, how to post pictures, or how to set up my page in general? It remains to be seen....so here we go!
