pay attention to meeeeee! i mean, uh, wait --

So I am trying to use this thing more. Anybody got any requests for content?

I might try doing more with clothes-blogging at the point where, uh, I can afford some more clothes for better variety and colour choice. Currently all my skirts are BLACK. Which is a fine colour and I am very fond of it but I like COLOUR. And given not a few of my fitted tees are black also... yes. At some point I need to acquire skirts that are not black, and possibly some dresses.

And at some point I might actually do something with my professional journal over at ftfisher. Which has languished utterly unloved for, uh, ages. Any requests for content over there?

(Hmph. My icon selection is tragically lacking. I will have to go and fix that, methinks.)

Some possible ideas for the pro blog: you mention in the profile there that you mean to write about giving massage therapy while somewhat disabled yourself: something about that, perhaps? That'd be interesting to read and likely useful for people. What else? Maybe guidelines for people with various conditions on what they should make a new massage therapist aware of.

Another thing: I've wanted to get a massage for quite a while now, but the plethora of methods and practitioners confuse me and I put it off. This might be too 101 for that blog and I'm sure sometime soon I'll google it and make sense of it. But if you felt like writing abput it, I'd like to read general advice on types of massages and how to choose a massage therapist. (I'd be looking for it to relieve tense shoulders and intermittent sciatica in one leg, and also as a pampering experience of time doing nothing and being made relax.)

I assume you have some vision in mind for each of your journals; if you wrote something about what you see as the purpose of this journal, people might be able to give better suggestions for content.

Heh! Fair enough.

This journal, for what it's worth, is basically my public journal. It's associated to my meatspace moniker, that's about it. It doesn't actually have a specific goal, other than to be a place to journal/blog publicly. So content could be -- just about anything of interest to me and/or my audience (such as it is)? ftfisher is meant to be my professional blog for talking about, well, my profession and possibly some related activism, though I've hardly ever done anything with it.

Hm, okay. Since this is your public journal, I'm a bit hesitant to write about anything I learned in a less public space, so forgive me if the following is a little vague. Feel free to delete this if I cross a line -- I won't be offended. I know you have a lot of interest in medicine, and you have experience in the world of treatments from several different angles: as a student, through your studies of biology; as a practitioner, through your (former?) job as a masseuse; and as a patient of multiple doctors and other health care workers. It would be interesting to read more about your opinion of various professional and ethical dilemmas that come up in the world of medicine. I could give specific examples of questions that I have, but I fear that might be limiting. I would rather you write about issues that you find important and where you think you have a lot to contribute to the discussion.
