First entries are always a littel nerve-wracking…

This is my first time writing anything on wordpress – on any blog, for that matter. I have never done anything like this before, and to be honest, it feels a little awkward.
I was the kind of person who always disavowed the uses that Myspace had to offer. No, I don’t have a Myspace page, but in my haste I realize that it has its uses for the younger generation of thrill-seeking sex addicts looking to shack up and get it on. That’s fine; that’s their (your) thing. Keep doing what you do. Go for the gold.
I will simply dip my toe in the waters of web-wandering at my own leisure, testing, analyzing, and retesting before I plunge in like a fat kid at a pool party. I have nothing to gain by throwing caution to the wind and immersing myself in an electronic world. Chatting does not appeal to me, I hardly ever use my Yahoo! instant messenger. Why then, you may ask, have I decided to initiate a blog page? Blogging? For crying out loud, I don’t even care to read what I have written. Reading is really a challenge for me, and I can’t stand the thought of having to scroll through someone else’s nothingness. I guess what spurred me on to start a blog was the fact that I can write what I want to for those who are even remotely interested (family, mostly) without the danger of interactive dialogue, getting interrupted, you know, that stuff. I can be 100% dogmatic and not be challenged.
Unless, of course, the readers challenge me within their minds, in which case they have already won, and this blog means nothing to them, except an opportunity for them to brush up on their “false-argument” skills.

OH, my good friend. What a backdoor you’ve left open by stating you can be 100% dogmatic, then allowing comments. I love to troll around blogs and call out the writers on their misguided attempts at being coherent or relevant, or even just worthy of brain possession. I relish the opportunity for cutting you down to size!!!
Ok, so, like, mess up already… I mean, I know you, I know you have it in you. I’ll be here. Waiting.
