Here We Go Again

So, how many blogs have you started? This is number three for me. Surely my passion to be disciplined with my blog entries will stick this time... right? The question always arises for me: Why are you so arrogant to think people want to take their time to read your thoughts on life and stuff when they could be telling the universe through various social media avenues about how they just woke up and are heading to work? Or how they hate Mondays. Or how their cat just made the cutest face. Or... my favorite... name-dropping but disguising it with casual and familiar language. For instance, "I just had lunch with a good friend, Rob Bell. Good guy." Cool.

Then it hit me... people take the time because I'm hilarious, entertaining, provocative, original, fresh. You know, I'm not attempting to be arrogant or cocky, but I'm sure you'd agree with me that there comes a time in life when you begin "calling them as you see them." Anything else is just a waste of time. Plus, we're living in a post-modern culture that is sick of the facades and sick of the disingenuous. So, no fronts: I am funny. I hope you enjoy my blog.
