Welcome to the Cave!

In case you're wondering why I chose to call this my cave...consider the definition of cave:

Still not sure what I'm referring to? Well, sometimes I feel like I am a cave in some regards. You see, we all have a part of us we like to hide from the outside world. Maybe hide isn't the correct word here...we don't always conciously decide to let everyone know the parts of ourselves that make us tick. During an ordinary dinner conversation I probably wouldn't recite my favorite quotations for instance. Sure the conversation may include such topics, because invariably such topics are what start a conversation. However, I'm talking of something even a little deeper here. Oh why am I bothering to try to explain it? Perhaps the best way to learn what I am talking about it to experience it for youself! :)

For the more practical of this universe I offer an alternative reason for choosing the word cave. About five years ago I became totally engrossed in a series of books written by Jean Auel. The first book in the series The Clan of the Cave Bear started the journey for me. I read the books in under two days...which is even a bit quick for the reader in me. Normally if I read that fast I don't comprehend what I'm reading. However, this experience was so full it was almost scary! I not only comprehended everything I read, it took over my dream world for several days afterwards. I was fascinated with the story itself of course (or I wouldn't have continued to read) but the imagery Jean Auel used was simply breathtaking. I could actually close my eyes and see the word pictures she created. Hence, an interest in the cave dwellers of our pasts.

So, while I tried to come up with a title for this set of blurbs I am about to embark on, the image of a cave came to me. I didn't want to say something "normal" like Welcome to TickAngel's Homepage because that isn't me. So you may choose to think of this as the cave of my mind (which explains that the picture up-top doesn't resemble a cave at all!)

Before I totally lose you here...lets just get to the meat and potatoes!
