Bloggy Bloggington

I guess I'm gonna try to blog consistently this summer, to see how it goes, and to see if anyone cares. It's weird writing like this when I don't how who my audience is. As I'm writing this right now, I don't have an audience at all, so I feel a bit like a crazy person. You might stare at someone who's talking to himself in a grocery store, and I feel self-conscious for that reason.

Anyway, I'm not sure of the best way to introduce myself yet. Facebook has me list my favorite books, movies, TV shows, interests, and quotes, which is great, but I'm not going to do the same thing here. A blog just seems like it has a completely different feel - it's still obviously personal, but it's not as blatantly ego-driven. I can just reveal what I want to reveal through my writing - you won't get updated every time I change my profile.

I could run through the standard introduction spiel (name, age, hometown, favorite color), but that's boring. I'll tell you three random facts about myself instead.
1) I've never bought a pen, and I refuse to do so - I acquired most of my writing utensils from career fairs in college.
2) I hate when people stand in doorways. Nobody can get in or out!
3) I can do a dead-on impression of several celebrities/TV characters (like Buster Bluth from Arrested Development)

So I'll try to keep this up to date with stories, rants, and other features. I have some ideas, and I'm open to suggestions, so as Tobias Funke would say, "Let the great experiment begin!!"
