Inaugural Post

on Tuesday, November 25, 2008

I know everyone has been anxiously awaiting this moment, my first blog post.

After many long hours (unfortunately I'm not exaggerating) I have finally settled on an acceptable blog layout/color scheme. For some reason, I felt as though I couldn’t start writing anything until everything looked perfect. It’s quite the chore to find a blog background that is appropriately masculine and legible all at the same time. Everything may not be perfect, but it’s a good start.

I’ve been wanting to start a blog for a long time, but there have been several reasons that I just haven’t started. The main reason was that it seems like only newly married girls have blogs. Since I am neither married nor am I female, I have unnecessarily delayed the start of my blogging. I have gotten over that and figured I too have funny/interesting stories to share, so why not start now. My wife can take over once I get married. :)

Once I decided I would start blogging I told my Mom about my intentions. She said, and I quote, “What do you have to blog about?” I strongly felt the need to say, “Just because I’m not a newly married female with a cute new house and a child on the way, doesn’t mean that I don’t have a life or anything interesting to say!” …but I resisted. So, Mom, this blog is officially dedicated to you. Hopefully I have something interesting enough to say that you take the time to read it.

So, in conclusion, I hope all of my family and friends enjoy the many blogs to come. Please leave comments and let me know what you think.
