Hmm-mmm, why a blog? Why this blog? I don't know. Terminal insanity perhaps. Your guess is good as mine.
Who am I? Answer: I am. It's as simple as that.
My name? Well, let's call me Vanilla, because I love vanilla. Mmmm-mmm.
What will this blog be about? Who knows. Let's see what happens. Perhaps it will be about writing, painting, the arts, life, the universe and everything. Witterings and warblings would probably be the best description. Well, that at least was my intention... And then a funny thing happened on the way to the forum...
This five foot something chicken materialised next to me, eyed me beadily and muttered, "Ba-kaaaak!" Then she whispered in my ear, which rather tickled with all those feathers and said, "Got a job for you, do whatever you do but make some place for me too."
Huh? I'd have said she had a cheek, but she was a pretty scary kind of chicken. She had attitude, if you know what I mean. And although I'm not chicken, well... yes, okay, let's not go there.
So here I am, starting a blog about this and that and perhaps the writing life - and saving space for some demented alien chicken from some planet called Novapulse - just so she can make the odd, now and again, comment on what she calls the dire state of humanity.
Oh dear, I worry that I may have been hijacked before I've even begun... Oh well, let's just see what happens, shall we...?

Oh I'm feeling so smug that I managed to be the first to comment on your new blog! I look forward to seeing where this goes. Keep an eye on that chicken, she's a wild one!
Hiya Baron, since I wasn't even sure that anyone would know I was lurking out here, I'm really dead chuffed that you found your way here. As you can see, there's still a bit of work to be done.
And as for that chicken, well, yes, the less said, the better! :-)
Don't trust the chicken - if it gets angry just whisper "K. F. C." in its ear... might work.
Oh wow. That chicken is back! The world is going to be a saner place again. Yay. Looking forward to what happens here.
Mutley, I had thought if that chicken got badly out of hand I could roast her... But I keep getting this funny voice in my head which whispers "beware Granny Were". Don't know what it means, but it's a bit scary.
Verilion - don't bank on the chicken being back, this is my blog, not that damned chicken's!
Yippee! And yippee again! And some big hugs too ...
And big hugs right back at ya, Debi and the chicken sends pecks and flutters.
Oh how absolutely gorgeous
What an absolute thriller
Coming home from holiday
And find an Absolute Vanilla!!
So very, very pleased
from the
Absolute Gin
Ooh, an Absolute Minx, what's left and absolute Gin of a pome!
Welcome home, The Minx and hope you had a great holiday!
whoot!
be rest assured, Vanilla. with Atyllah around, your place at the High Order (and those perks and privileges) is all but confirmed. you just have to keep the bird happy with musings and rants.
or do i know her?
Me Whoot? I think it's "ba-kaaak", isn't it. Having this alien chicken lurking in the background of my life is proving to be highly troublesome...
CS, I think it is highly likely that you do know that darned chicken... You have my sympathies.
WooHoo!
Good News! Good Day! Good Job! Good Blog! Good Chickens! My Goodness! Just Good! Mo' Good! Goodgoodgood!
Brian - the chicken and I both hope the enthusiasm and praise are deserved. The chicken says of course they are, but I, being a mere mortal, harbour doubts - but then aint't that just so what humans are all about. Sigh.
:-)
Congrats on the new blog! It looks great, and we're looking forward to reading it frequently!
