As the title may suggest, this is my first post. Not my first ever blog post, because, well, I've started multiple blogs in the past, did one of these "first post" posts, and then either got busy, or got bored. Or forgot my login information and the location of the blog itself on the interwebs...both of which are not only possible, but more than 100% likely.
I have to start being more on top of blogs. Blogs are good. They let you get things off your chest. You know, things that you could easily tell a friend or co-worker (or parent, or relative, or stranger on the street, or UPS driver...you get the point), but instead you choose to post on the world wide web for a million people (okay, that's wishful thinking. This blog will have roughly 2.3 readers, including myself.) to see. Perhaps we feel that posting words, thoughts, wishes, and dreams for anyone with a computer and lots of time on their hands to see, is validating for some reason?
I feel that it will be a good chance to be snarky and droll in a public forum where I can't actually see people sneering at me, snoring and not even trying to hide it, rolling their eyes, or not laughing when I try to be witty. I have a suspicion that this blog will be like Steve Carrell's character on The Office: kind of awkward, not really funny, but too car accident-y to totally ignore. Okay, not true. I'm too self-depricating and pessimistic to believe that people will be so enraptured by my stupid words that they won't be able to ignore it.
I'm sure this blog will be like a reality TV star and no one will give a flying fuck. But, it will be mine, and that's all I will need to know.
Now read it, you bastards.
