Me (or - an introduction to myself, my thinking, my goal, and my dinner)

So this is new for me.

I have attempted this sentence three times now.  We'll see if anything sticks...

The point of this blog: I am just going to talk about me, my day, my thoughts: pretty much whatever is on my mind on Mondays.  Sometime it will be a soap box, sometimes a philosophical conundrum (thnx google for spell checking that), sometimes a movie or video game review/rant.  I am going to be honest.  I am going to say my thoughts.  I will attempt not to be rude, condescending, or offensive.

[DISCLAIMER]

I am an artist.  I am a cynic.  I am an introvert.  I am a Christian.  I am a gamer.  I watch a lot of movies.  I am a philosopher.  I am a critic.  I am the default DM for a monthly D and D group that I organized.  I like C.S. Lewis.  I like H.P. Lovecraft.  I like H.R. Geiger.  I apparently like people who do not go by their first or middle name.  I am married.  I eat meat (and I like it!).  I am not a republican or a democrat.  I do not approve of lima beans.

If you do not approve of any of these things, do not think these things should go together, have already made an opinion about me that cannot be summed up with one of the disclaimer sentences, or generally do not play well with other people's opinions then this blog is not for you.

And that is fine!

Opinions are many and varied.  We are allowed to have opinions and express them (with the exception of punching someone you don't like in the face in public without recent provocation).  I am allowed to have my opinions.  You are allowed to have your opinions.  It does not bother me that our opinions might and probably will differ on more than one occasion.  That's the beauty of opinions!

To reiterate: this blog is me and my thoughts.  I will attempt to word things in a way that will properly express what I am thinking in a way that will be commonly understood.  For example: if something does not bother me I will use the words "it doesn't matter" as opposed to "I don't care".  The first expresses the superfluous nature of the thing in my life whereas the latter sounds like I am being a jerk.  I am not a jerk (or if I am I'm REALLY a jerk and no one has told me 'cuz I'll be a jerk toward them...idk) so I don't want to sound like one.  I will therefore attempt to communicate despite the fickle, connotative nature of the words we use in the English language.  *sigh*

And I'm done for now.  My wife has made meatballs and they look fantastic so I am going to eat them.
