I Can Has Blog??

Sometimes, I complain that all my friends are artists and I am not; that they can all create incredible, beautiful, or funny things while I can do nothing except sit around watching them create incredible, beautiful, or funny things while wishing I had more beer.

Sometimes, some of those friends point out that I can write. I acknowledge that I have that ability, as do most people in this country. I think, though, that they are implying that I can write well. I'm not sure where they got this idea since most of the time, when I look back upon something I wrote, I hang my head in embarrassment and stuff it away in my 'creativity drawer' along with every other thing I've written, never to be seen again.

Maybe, I just need to get it out there. Maybe I AM good, and just need more practice. Or like most successful writers these days, maybe I suck but will become well known and successful anyway, because I am persistent in displaying my work? I guess we'll find out.

I've been resistant to starting a blog or journal in the past because, quite frankly, I am a lazy ass with a short attention span. I'd be an utter fool to deny this fact about myself, as it is one of the primary reasons that my life has amounted to so little thus far. But I have a plan to improve myself and my life, and for some reason, that plan includes starting this blog. I will be doing my very best to keep up with it. Having lots of friends reading it and commenting on it will help, because I am a whore for attention (hint hint).

I know it doesn't look like much now, but give me a break. Its my first post. It will get better, I swear. And if it doesn't....I don't know. Make sure it does.
