If I don't see you more than once a week then each time I do see you, you say: "So, what have you been up to?" and "Why don't I ever know what's going on with you?" and sometimes you even say: "Why don't you send me an email every now and then to let me know how you're doing?"
Depending on how I'm feeling that day I could answer you with a few variations but typically I'll say: "If you'd follow me on Tumblr, you'd know." A couple days ago I realized that's a lie. I've since felt uneasy posting some things on Tumblr and other things I post would probably give my grandmother a heart attack, so I'll just hope she never finds it.
Needless to say, I need somewhere to throw thoughts, hope someone catches them whips them back. I don't mind if it's a curve ball. I can handle it; it would be preferred. Yes, I have a LiveJournal too, and I even had a different Blogger account once upon a time.
Things are different now. I'll keep-up with my Tumblr account as it's become a great community for me and I've met some outstanding people, one for certain I'll cherish my whole life. I will put other things here though: things I've been pondering, tidbits of things I find interesting, but mostly it'll be a good way for you to get to know me. You, the guy who sat next to me in Ms. Craemer's Algebra II class. You, the barista that doesn't mind my pickiness with pastries. You, my sort-of cousin as your aunt is my dad's ex-wife. You, Sister, checking this blog every three months when you remember that it exists and you have a couple minutes after changing a diaper. You, ex-girlfriend/ladyfriend/guyfriend/boyfriend who stumbled upon this and are not certain if you want to know what I'm up to but are now intrigued by my pointing you out. And you, someone who stumbled upon this blog and enjoyed what you read.
So, instead of date night, watching another Food Network Challenge, or doing some cleaning, I've created a new blog. What a successful day.
