General Purposes

Bear with me folks, I'm new to blogging. That's why the first few posts will be pretty cheesy while I'm still learning and finding a voice on here. It won't explain why all the latter posts will be lame, however. I'll have no excuses at that point.

I feel like I need one of those "Hello! My Name Is" tags. I guess that's what the profile is for. (maybe I should fill that out?)
Better blogging through vicarious living - please note it does not say 'excellent and amazing blogging' just 'better blogging'. Meaning if I blogged about my own life all the time, I wouldn't even read it. I find I have reached a point where I feel that although my own life is comfortable and nice and just plain swell, everyone else's is just so much more exciting. Living vicariously through others is not a substitute for improving and changing your own life; it is merely a hobby I've stumbled into.

Hence the joys of the blogging world. I've lurked around on blogger for a week or two, and better entertainment you couldn't ask for. It's like one big soap opera, hold the bad acting. Illicit affairs, secrets, social commentary, stand-up comedy routines. With a click of the 'next blog' button you can be entertained, amused, angered, turned on or intrigued. Gotta appreciate a medium like that.
