Hello World!
So my friend ‘Meg’ showed me her blog today (megspeak.blog.com) and I thought, ‘What a fantastic idea! I should write a blog.’ Then the downer bitch who lives in my head said, ‘No, then you’d be a lame-ass copy-cat.’ But you know what, bitch? This is a free country, and I’ll damn well write a blog if I please! It won’t be as good as Meg’s, for she is highly interesting and always witty, but at the very least I can use this as a form of stress release.
The fact that this is my first blog makes me feel like I’m obligated to write something highly interesting and pithy to capture the reader’s attention! Yeah, no pressure. But really, who’s going to read this but some random, incredibly bored person sitting at their computer at 2 a.m. with a bag of potato chips and a blank look on their face (a.k.a. my long-lost twin)? Or, I guess, friends who feel sorry for me might read this. So I suppose I don’t have to worry about disappointing an audience or anything. With this in mind, I plan on treating this blog kind of like a diary, or perhaps a suppository for all the pointless stories I carry around in my head and am constantly spurting out at whomever will listen.
Now, for future notice, so no one can say I didn’t warn them, I WILL NOT be giving my real location or my full name to ANYONE no matter how normal they seem or how much they beg. Yes I know I’m being paranoid, but I’ve heard too many horror stories. Other than that and perhaps changing a few names here and there I plan on spouting out whatever comes to mind, completely - and I’m sure embarrassingly - honest. Hopefully it turns out to have at least a slight modicum of entertainment for SOMEONE out there. So, until I’m in the right frame of mind to start airing the random mess that is my psyche, I will bid you adieu.
