an explanation of sorts

running and sardonic commentary are two of my favorite activities. recently, i realized that these two avocations dovetailed quite nicely with the world of blogging. as such, i have come to the undeniable conclusion that i ought to get on board with the zeigeist and once again have a blog. i haven't written regularly since the days of livejournal when the idea of a blog was novel and interesting to me. now that the air has been let out of that trend and the concept is trite, i'm compelled to join the din of uninformed voices.
like most blogs, i figure this will be quite the jumble of formats with a terribly irregular posting schedule and little, if any, point for anyone other than me. i'm going to try to use this to keep track of my heretofore terribly inconsistent running habits while also posting a grab bag of other entry types that may include, but are not limited to:
1. the reactions of a sheltered suburbanite to world news
2. my expert opinions on matters of state and all forms of media (esp. movies and music)
3. links to the more reasoned thoughts of others (mostly when they agree with me and less so when they don't)
4. humorous works by others that will prove how hilarious i am because i get them
5. photographs of me and mine doing ordinary, everyday things in ordinary, everyday ways which are much more interesting than your photos because they include me and/or people i know and care about
6. rants about things that i could change, but am too lazy work on
i guess this is the part where i'd tell you that i'd like to think that you'll enjoy this if you stumble across it. of course, i'm not going to do that (unless you're kim) because, of course, i'm much too incredible to be concerned with your enjoyment. please return later for updates (or don't) and have a wonderful day.
