Stepping in Line...

Okay, for those who truly know me, know that at my core is a rebellious nature. (I'm not talking in a spiritual sense of how we are all born deprived sinful rebellious beings....) I'm talking on a mere superficial level. And this rebelliousness usually rears its head when someone makes a blanket statement like "We should all bring back the word 'radical' from the mid 1990's" or "You should read that book that EVERYONE is reading. You know, the one where that guy is a crack addict from Michigan who overcomes his many life obstacles, who then proceeds uncovers the story that Mary Magdalene was actually married to Jesus...but then his lies are exposed on Oprah."

There is a 97% chance that I will just smile and nod at whatever conformist I'm talking to at that given moment, while thinking to myself, "Not a chance, lemming." However, there is that 3% chance that I might get on board with the idea. But know, if I do get on board, it'll probably be really late. Hence, where I am right now. I am stepping onto the blog board in typical late fashion.

As I get older, and life gets busier, I find it harder to have those hour long "catch up" phone conversations with cherished dear friends. I have become addicted to reading the blogs of those said friends to find out whats going on in their lives. And I confess that sometimes I even secretly read blogs of those I know from a distance.

Also let it be known, that I am NOT consistent with anything in my life except sarcasm, saying "your mom" as a response, and putting my foot in my mouth. Guarantee that there will be long spells in which you won't hear from me. And know that you won't walk away any smarter from reading this page. In fact, it'll probably have the adverse affect and you be most dumber.
