A Re-introduction

...since I'm currently in the business of new beginnings with the whole 'throw out half the old blog and keep getting rid of pieces of them once they're in the new blog' and feeling spring (albeit early) in the air...
I felt this was necessary.

Hello, I am Lindsay.

I'm a singer and a bass player, a graphic design student and a neat-freak, a Marvel comics nerd and a bookworm, a theater kid that wishes she had gone to school for theater, and I have a fantastic new straw cowboy hat with beautiful hardware.
some consider me 'Humble to a flaw' while others just think I'm weird.
others think I'm 'the deepest person' they've met, and some just don't care to know.
in all reality i'm a bit crazy with a dash of whimsy...
though that last bit hardly anyone gets to see, yet I'm getting better.
some think I'm too serious, some think I'm anything but serious.
I've been told I can seem standoffish though that is never my intention,
in all reality I do the best to be myself, but fully myself with others around and fully myself while on my own are two different things, why?
I'm a ridiculous introvert that wants nothing more than to run barefoot along the grass and talk to the Orion constellation as if he's my big brother, make people smile, and hopefully, hopefully, wonder at something in such a way my eyes glint.


I began this blog years ago just to get thought out, a friend and I blogged together on separate blogs. That friend is gone but this blog, obviously, is still here.
a while ago this blog went from thought to a blatant need to spill out frustration...
but I want this to be for thoughts I want to hang on to, things I wish to find again...
not me boiling over several times a day because for the first time I'm experience the maelstrom of feelings.
It aggravated me that I wore my heart on my sleeve to that extent, even to a blog that only a few read.
With this in mind I utilized the magic 'hide blog' from profile option and the imported it all to here.
Many dropped, chopped, and swapped posts later...
here you are.

I don't claim that everything is a gem, there's probably posts I thought of dropping.
But hey, for my few good friends that read this, it helps them get me.
To the rest of you, feel free to skip as much as you would like or cruise right past, hey, I'm a wall-flower, I'm used to it!



as for the name, ah...

a few of my posts I do enjoy quite a bit, they remind me of anything from sitting by the Rhine reading Dorian Gray, traipsing all over the Midwest with my jazz band, or just stargazing while working at camp.
in all reality, you can have a great amount of good thought while gazing in wonder at what's around you.

When I'm at my best I can be serious, but with such wonder...
I love it.
Seriously Whimsical indeed.




p.s.
For future notice, my form and punctuation here would drive a grammar nazi insane. That first couple of years... Heh. Sorry. Had a no capital letters phase. Fit my thinking at the time. Hurts my eyes horrifically now.
It has progressed through the years as I have changed, yet the earlier years and such... ouch.
I follow my thought here, but then again even if I can switch it off and write well for papers...
I should make an effort here.
In addition, due to not too recent events, i'm slightly fearful of my thought being judged...
Open mind, please. it's only a part of my opinion, don't tear me apart, or even worse, assume.
in addition...
I tend to live in fear of others thinking I consider myself better than what I am.
...and I hope that doesn't rub off here.

...but I truly do love who I am and constantly try to live up to the ridiculous person God made me...
