Starting?

So, I may very well be the worst gay man in the world.  Ever.  I've said so for a long time now, and I'll get into the reasons why later.  I just want to make sure that I've said that at the very beginning so later on in reading this (and I'm speaking hypothetically because who knows if anybody WILL read this) you don't stop yourself and say "This guy in only barely gay."


I've thought about doing a blog for a while.  A friend of mine has been a ravenous blog reader for years now.  She's constantly going on about people that I'm supposed to have some sort of clue about. It seems that every time I interrupt to ask, "Who?" the response is always, "From this blog I've been reading."  Then, a coworker of mine started blogging to chronicle her first year on the job.  She's had some interesting posts and definitely some posts that remind me of experiences from my first year.  Finally, my blog addicted friend started one of her own to keep track of her weight loss trials and triumphs.  She's just starting out, but I really enjoy what she has to say.  She tells me about the comments she gets from people she doesn't know who read her blog and sympathize with her or have ideas for her to try or encouragements to get to her goal.


I finally decided to start my own blog while riding in the back seat of the car with my blog addicted friend and her husband.  Nobody was talking about blogs at all; it was just a random thought I had on the hour and a half car ride.  I guess the reason I'm doing this is partly out of the vanity that my thoughts and stories are both interesting and sought after.  But I also started this in the hopes that maybe my stories will give somebody a laugh or help somebody out in someway.  Even if you don't necessarily agree with everything I have to say, hopefully, you'll leave here with something new to think about or maybe a story to tell your friends that starts, "Listen to how stupid this guy is..."  Haha.

Edit: After writing four posts on one account and trying to follow a friend, I realized that the name that would display when I followed somebody was not what I wanted or thought it would be.  So, I salvaged my posts and started a new account that would show the name I wanted.  So, these next few posts will look like I wrote them all in one afternoon, but they were actually written over the course of a weekend.  Sorry, but I'm kind of anal about certain things.
