Eight months later

Sunday, April 30th, 2006

As you can tell, this blog has been a big hit. Im not even sure what I intended to do with this when I first started, but thinking back to the “blogger” days of yore, I tended to post a lot of the stupid stuff I did with my time. Maybe so when I’m an old and bitter man caressing a sawed off 12 guage while sitting in a rocking chair and yelling at the youngin’s bout their confound rascally behavior, Id have some stories to torture them with in order to have some leeway in negotiating an armistice on my nap/their play time.

On that note, I will argue that this blog is worth more than the single post between now and this blogs inception (which was actually much longer then 7 months ago). There has been much more time invested into this project. The process goes as so, first start working on X project, and allow my mind to wander on to life’s most important subjects like ending world hunger. I believe the conversation goes something like this:

“Wait a minute, Im kind of hungry. Maybe Ill get something from the fridge. Dang it, everything’s my roommates. Maybe I should order out, but that would require time and money, and I should probably spend that time working on my project. Why the heck can I focus on wanting to focus, but not actually focus? It must have been poor choices I made previously in my life. Maybe it’s not my fault, let me blame it on experiences beyond my control. Dang it, that doesnt work, I hate determinism. Speaking of determinism…”

Essentially I end up on something which inspires me to write a draft, and so I type out a blurb of incoherent thoughts and figure Ill turn it into something readable later. Weeks later I log on and realize how much I really suck at writing, and delete the draft I created. The point (as if anything I ever say has one)? Do not be fooled by the appearances of this webpage. In addition to a single post, this page has hours of pointless procrastination stock piled into it. But consistency is so monotonous. So in an effort to spice things up (or so much as much as an internet nerd can do anything considered spicy), I submit to my audience a.k.a. myself a newly published post!

Introduction

Sunday, September 4th, 2005

Alright, this is my introductory post. Ill probably edit it a bit since there are specific things that Id like to say, but dont know exactly how to say it yet. But for now, Ill say a few basic things so I can get started with the rest of my blog. First of all, this is an introduction to my blog. I have decided that the purpose of my blog will be to create a record for myself. Of what Im still not certain yet, but Im sure that once I create categories and stuff Ill have a better idea. In any case, Ill probably be directing most stuff to myself, kind of like the voice in my head talking to me, which I tend to do a lot. So for those who might wander by and read this, I apologize in advance if things seem a bit unclear. If I feel up to it ill try and make a few of the more important posts in special events and such understandable and a bit more entertaining to the occasional passerby, but for the most part this is for me. And now that this is done, I suppose Ill start to record.
