So This is Blogging...

So this is what it's like to have a blog. Wow. Now I get to share my innermost thoughts with everybody in the world! Be afraid. Be very afraid. 

Lemme get this out of the way...I don't think like most people. I think of things, start over-analyzing them, and form opinions that the average person would find rather strange. For example, I think school zones are ridiculous and completely illogical. Now, hold on! Here's my reasoning. A kid is (or should be) taught never to cross the street alone when he/she is little. When older, he/she is (or should be) taught to carefully look both ways since traffic usually has the right of way. However, in school zones, it's completely the opposite. Traffic has to slow down & yield to the kids! Aren't we confusing our kids by doing this? What if a kid thinks that every time he/she wants to cross the street the traffic will slow down? And then he/she gets flattened like a cockroach on a tile floor because the traffic on Main Street isn't slowing down?

See, that's the way I think. Pretty weird, huh?

You'll find that I have a lot to say about traffic & driving. Since I spend such a huge part of my life hanging out in my car & watching the antics of the other drivers, I have much to say. But I'll save that for another time.

Okay, I've just about completed my first blog post. It was everything I ever dreamed it would be, but now I have to get back to reality. Having a wife, three kids, a full-time job, and being a musician in a band makes my life about 98.735% reality, which doesn't leave a lot of time to be blogging. In fact, my mother-in-law just took two of the kids to a birthday party, and my wife is going to Target with the third kid. Great opportunity for me to blog, right? Nope! I'm about to sacrifice myself to the 140-degree heat & 200% humidity of South Louisiana, all in the noble attempt to cut my grass. Due to the extreme weather conditions here, it becomes necessary to cut grass every other day in order to prevent a rainforest from sprouting up in my yard. Okay, so I'm exaggerating a bit (which is another weird thing about me), but it is hot as hell out there, and my grass is approaching two feet tall. I hope my lawn mower can handle it.
