The name game
Though I can't remember how it happened, last Thursday, my uncle and I got into a conversation about my blog. It went something like this (and I am embellishing a little):
Elise's uncle: "Ramblings of a girl with nowhere to go but up." That implies you're at the bottom, but you're not really.
Elise: Yeah, well, I made up the title in July of 2003 when I had just come back to DC from Mexico. I had no job, no money, no friends in DC, and I had just left a guy I really cared about.
Elise's uncle: So, don't you think you should change the name?
Elise: But I really like that title...
Things have changed a lot since I started this blog. Since then, I've had two jobs, made some money, connected with dozens of wonderful people in DC, gotten over that guy in Mexico, and started business school. My uncle's suggestion is a good one. So, from now on my tag line will be, "Ramblings of a girl who's moving on up." That's more fitting, right?
