My Socks Are on Fire!
Monday, May 01, 2006
 
You probably don't know it, so I'm going to tell you.

A few posts back I started of by saying "I'm doing what, now?" and as the opener of this post implies, I'm going to tell you that I stole this intro from another blog that I read every once in a blue moon. The blog is called You're doing what? and it's about one of the homeschooloing families that along with my mother, started what was then called the Grapevine Area Homeschoolers. Now they still homeschool their eight, working on nine, children, but they're doing it while living and working on a farm. I've joked about this family before (although not here to my knowledge) but they are incredible because what they're doing is following their dream. Roger and Melissa have always wanted to live on a self sustaining farm, and they are working towards that goal. The reason I used (a modified version of) their blog title, is because that's what I want to do too. No not live on a farm, but follow my dream. Years ago, I said to myself (and my mother who was also in the car) "I want to be a crazy proffessor, I think I'd be really good at that." however I've spent an entire school year telling myself that I wanted to be an engineer. I don't really know why I thought this, but my mom thinks it's because I see myself as smart and smart people become engineers. Whatever the reason, it was what I wanted to do. I have since changed my mind, or come to a realization about those thoughts. They're wrong, the young me was right. An atheist nut was once paraphrased as saying "remember what you wanted to do as a kid, so you can do it when you're an adult." He was right.

I want to be creative, be it through theatre design, making movies, writing plays, short stories or poems. I want a podcast about anything, and I hope to have one next semester. I want to make a movie about the Dentist Mafia of Grapevine Texas, shot on location with real dentists. I want a family, a beautiful wife two kids, one boy one girl, the boy in scouts. I want to come up with a great joke. I want to be remembered by a complete stranger. I want to finish my one man show.

P.S. A blue moon is actually the name for the second full moon in a month. The last one was in 2001 and the next will be in 2007. I read the Nelson's blog slightly more often than that

No, no, No, nooooooooooo
No, no, No
Stick to the stuff you know
If you wanna be cool
Follow one simple rule
Don't mess with the flow, no No
Stick to the status quo

P.S.S. (post song script) If anybody reads this would you mind identifying yourself by saying soemthing, anyting in the comments. I'm just really curious. (purple monkey dishwasher would be an appriopriate comment)

This is just one man's blog. You will read about my life and what happens therein. Will it change your life? No. Should you read it? Probably not.

I guess this is a good a time as any to welcome any intrepid readers that have stumbled here from facebook. It should be noted that there is some heavy stuff that gets posted here. I should also note that this blog is about me and my outlook. This is one of the few places where I am 100 percent honest. That's not to say that my feelings don't change. What I wrote here three years ago is very different than what I felt three weeks ago, and that is decidedly different that what I felt three days ago. So intrepid readers, I invite you to comb through the archives, but be warned, if we know each other you might be mentioned, I might have used a pseudonym I might not have. Any thing on here is something that I deem worthy to posted on the netterwebs. That means it's important to me. If something I post here bothers you that's OK. But rarely (read:never) will I edit previous posts. I say what I mean and I mean what I say. I may not be proud of what I put out here but I mean it. If you want to talk about it go ahead, I have comment links for all of the posts, or you can just ask me about in the real world. If it's here it's fair game for discussion.

Everything here is the intellectual property of the owner unless otherwise indicated. Steal it and I will have my posse of legal students attack you face. There is no fair use of it, just stealing. If you want to quote me, ask first.
