Welp, Im starting a blog...

To tell you the truth, I find it kind of annoying whenever people start a blog and in their first post tell you about why they started a blog, but here I am, doing just that…..so let me start out by first saying im sorry for being hideously cliché and lame. My sincerest apologies.

Ive always been a constant thinker. Sometimes it honestly feels like my brain is going like a million miles an hour all day. I think about everything…all the time. It never stops. Due to a freak snowstorm (if 2 inches constitutes a snow storm) in Belton, and the grace of God, I had a lot of free time a few weeks ago. Three days in the middle of the week with no classes, and a whole lot of nothing to do, and if you’ve ever lived in Belton, Texas, you know what I mean when I say NOTHING to do.

Throughout the course of those three days I realized just how bad free time is for me. I basically sat around and thought. ALL DAY!...i thought about everything. And then rethought about it all again. I’ve lived with myself for a good 19 years now, so I should have known what this kind of idle time would do to me, but by the end of those 3 days, I was mentally exhausted. I had thought myself into a tizzy for no reason at all. And what I mostly thought about was how much I think…ironic.

I tell you all this to try to explain that the reason I have decided to try this whole blogging thing is simply to deposit all of my endless thoughts somewhere outside of my head. Usually I just journal, but I thought that maybe if I put it out into the world, even if nobody read it, It would make me feel like all of these thoughts weren’t just stock piling themselves in the far corners of my brain to collect dust. It probably wont be the most interesting things you’ve ever read, or the funniest, or most intelligent, and heck you’ll probably think I sound like a rambling idiot (which is how I feel right now), but I just feel like its time for me to release some of the junk in this brain of mine, and make room in my head for some new stuff. I’ve been considering the blog thing for a while, and I think its finally time. So, here it goes!
