Man, I miss putting up some real blogs. I guess when I started the blog itself, I wanted to cover topics like religion, horoscopes, etc. so I could give you my ever-important two cents on the matter and send you away with just that much more knowledge that would make you a better person and citizen and friend and et al. But I don't know. Somewhere along the way I lost that fire. Why? Because last year I realized I don't have it all together. That hit somewhere between waiting for the pregnancy test results outside of a walmart bathroom to having to move home in shame since I mustered a whopping 1.6 GPA for the Spring semester. Those are not the marks of a person who has it together, so it was quite obvious the attitude of this blog needed to change. Big time. And you know what, it has.
There are a few reasons for this.
Firstly, the girl I'm chasing is one I'm actually talking to on a regular basis. There's a real relationship, and not some vague strong connection that's entirely one-sided. . . I think I'd better leave it at that. I'd sound even more like a creeper if I went further.
Secondly, I've been eating some humble pie as time has gone on, though I think I digested some of it. I seem to be regressing slightly, but not enough to pull the parachute cord yet. And I'm not really sure what that's a metaphor for, honestly.
Thirdly, I'm writing what I feel rather than what I think. I've cried, I've laughed, I've reminisced, I've planned, and I've been me on this blog. I've invested in it. That's just a wonderful feeling/"And that's an encouraging thought" (As Gandalf would put it).
Fourthly, I've been more and more focused on my vertical relationship, and that means being more in tune with what really makes me tick, and changing out the cogs as needed. Which has been more than I really care to admit.
Fifthly, because some of my good friends (and greatest memories, as I put it so long ago) follow this, and it's not always possible to really stay caught up with them all the time, this seems like a good place to give an update on my life. Kinda one sided, but its a good starting point. People can pray if they know whats up.
Sixthly, I've never typed out sixthly so I decided I'd add another point just so I could type out sixthly for the very first time. And second. And third.
Now if you're especially talented, as I'm sure you are, and bored, as I'm sure you are, you may notice a connection between what I just stated above and the short answers to the weird little questions, and you really should've noticed it because I just remembered that I mentioned it directly. . . sheesh my memory sucks. Anywho, I try to avoid answering deep questions. Counsel is one thing, but I'm not normally here to tell you if I think humanity can time travel, which used to be my favorite one.
It's a crazy life.
