Why a Blog?

Why not?

As long as i can remember teh internets have been one of my favorite hang out spots. They've served as my television set since (this time). I know them like the back of my hand and find humor in things most wouldn't even understand. Unfortunately I've fallen into the black holes of social networking AOL, Myspace, Facebook... not to mention the MMORPG (a treadmill that makes you fatter LMAO) of MMORPG's, WoW (I'll explain another day how that game stole years from my life and added pounds to my ass). Most actually have also fallen into these traps and really have no clue how much time yearly is invested in them.

Anyway, the real reason im here. Facebook. That's the reason i finally decided to start this things after many years of thinking about getting past the actual starting (which consists of nothing more than picking a name and choosing a template). Well, it was more like the lack of a Facebook. This past Friday I come home around 10 pm and try signing on, only to find that my account had been disabled. If you know me, which you probably do, would understand that this a major catastrophe and not something to be taken lightly. Sure I had the initial panics of OMG wtf am I gonna do, but then the logical side of my brain started cranking and I worked out a solution that either my account was phished or they found this video offensive. Eitherway I convinced myself to wait it out. I convinced myself that none of this would be enough to permanently delete the years of hard work invested friending, commenting and picture/article posting. Some Thing began to bother me though, I never realized that I see and hear way too much to not tell others about it. I felt silenced. I used to feel that i used facebook to keep in touch with my friends (which in reality isn't my major use). It occurred to me that i use facebook for reasons other than i originally thought, it's an outlet for me, a place where i can clear my head of the sensory overload that has become my life. I needed an outlet. A place I could come and write stupid things and post stupider things. With or without an audience it'll all be the same to me. It's a place for me to collect my random wandering thoughts and organize the wealth of mostly useless information that exists on the internet.

Many good things did come from this weekend sans facebook. I got things done. I realized that it hasn't bothered me not being able to sign in. I even read an amazing book ;). The last time i read a book facebook didn't exist!! In a way i feel liberated knowing that I don't NEED to log in. I definitely recommend everyone trying it for a weekend.

Most importantly these are the Chronicles of a Superhero.

Either all that or I'm just lazy and i really do enjoy wasting my day in front of this wonderful piece of machinery.
