A new star in my constellation of blogs

I wonder if this was how the universe was a few million years after the big bang. A star forms, looks around, sees not much else but dark. Yells over to the spinning disk of gas to steller north. "Hey man, check it out! I glow!" Then the gas disk thinks, "Hmmm. I could glow, too." And then it compresses itself and lights up. And then both the new stars tell their other gas disk friends, and pretty soon, it's a cluster. Then a galaxy. Even if that's not what happened with the universe, it's what's totally going on in my corner of the blogosphere. A friend (not just an "acquaintance-becoming" saw my kid's blog, then decided to start her own. So check it out. Read about a secret sauce garden and the life of a semi-full-time musician.
