Random Tangents

really!? a blog? i guess the short and easy answer is: yes! "and why?" a few people (ok let's face it...everyone) will ask. as i was sitting at my desk today, i was thinking about how my place of employment has changed from a place of relative peace and freedom, to a stifeling prison reminescant of a socialist work camp. ok so that might be a bit harsh, but really it's not a pleasant place to be any longer. i was thinking what a great piece of sarcasm i could write with this idea. but alas, i had no one to share it with. and really what's the point of scathing sarcasm without an audience. and my blog was born. i figured it was better to share it with people this way rather than sit at my desk holding a conversation with myself; seeing as how i sit right next to the copier/printer and i don't want all my co-workers to think i had lost it. although on the other hand, i might be able to claim disability...hmmm
so i thought i would share my random tangents...and they are random...with others. do i really think a lot of people will read this? no. but if there was even one other person whose day i can brighten by touching on some shared experience, then i feel it's worth it. can i promise that i will be an advid writer and add something every day...or at least every other? please. while i may not have much of a life, my non existant life is hard to keep up with as it is. but i will write when the urge strikes me. and as i have said, i am pretty random, so i might surprise myself. if you are looking for well thoughtout, deep meaning writing, keep reading! not because you will find much of that here, but because if nothing else, i am sure to entertain. i keep myself rather amused with what goes through my head most of the time. will this be some dark humored, 'beat myself up' kind of thing? at times. but for the most part i don't take myself to seriously, life is too short to get worked up over the actions and writings of others. and if you are one of those people who is easliy offended, and something i said sets you off...well let's face it, you should probably be living in st. peter on the 'south campus' anyway >:-P
so that's my introduction of sorts. this blog will be a collection of random tangents and not really a set of connected, coherent thoughts. i make no promises and no apologies. but i will probably make you laugh every now and then.
