On Naming a Blog

First, the blog address, which is "my-dashboard-confessionals". 

If you know me at all, you know that my favorite band of all time is Dashboard Confessionals. I thought it fitting that I name my blog after them.... Their name comes from their song 'The Sharp Hint of New Tears' when it says "on the way home, this car hears my confessions...."

I'll let this blog be my "confessional" of sorts. 

As for the title - "This Is How It Goes, Baby" comes from a song by another of my favorite song artists, Missy Higgins. In case you were wondering, the rest of the lyrics go like this:

This is how it goes, baby

I get angry at your words and I go home

But you won't come after me,

Because I'll be back before you know, you know

The lyrics don't really have anything to why I choose them, I just like how it sounds.
