Well, hello there nobody!
Yeah, that's right, I'm talking to myself. That is to say, I don't expect anyone else to read this... ever.
So why am I writing it? Eh, who can say.
Perhaps I finally caught "Blog Fever" and just had to see what all the excitement was about.
Perhaps I'm a techie geek (sorta?) and am using this as an excuse to learn a bit more about web design (something I desperately need, as anyone looking at my site can tell).
Perhaps I'm a wannabe writer who never can get around to putting his words out there, and is looking for a way to trick himself into writing (even something as paltry as this).
Perhaps I'm looking for a forum to vent my annoyance with Politics Today but am not really interested in having anyone else see it?
Perhaps I'm looking for the healing power of catharsis (that's not the thing with tube in your winkie, right?)
Or perhaps I just like writing long, overly drawn-out sentences that use far, far, far too many articles broken up by far, far, far too many commas and parentheticals (hey, who doesn't?)
I dunno. It could be any of those. Or maybe I was just bored in my doctor's office the other day, picked-up the obligatory four year old copy of some tech magazine that was there and read about the amazing new "blogging" thing and just had to try it.
I dunno, which means you don't either because, as we've previously established, you must be me if you're reading this.
Confused? Me too. But wait... you're me so... I'm confused that you're.....
I need a drink.
Anyway, this thing will be pathetically-badly (good grammar there, huh?) designed and written, with all default templates and nothing flashy and exciting. So don't even bother to read it (but I just had to read it to write it and... headache...)
And hey, if you're not me, and you're reading this, feel free to leave a comment. I'll most likely just assume it's me just trying to trick me, but I may respond (I can be SOOO trixie to myself sometimes!)
Next entry I'll probably stop trying to impress myself with witticism and talk about something more substantive, like how much I can't stand the Government of Bush or all the stuff I've done trying to meet women (hey, I actually have good stories about that!)
I dunno, I'm tired now, and I need another drink.
