The Beginning

You could say I'm a little behind the times. This is my first blog. As a matter of fact... my cats had their own modes of emotional ventilation before I decided to do this for myself. Maybe that should be my first topic. Am I, in fact, so disenchanted with my own menial existence that I find it necessary to live vicariously through my pets? No, not really. They're just more interesting than me at this point in life. Look at it this way. I spend all my time and energy trying to get money, and then I use what little energy and time I have left trying to keep money. And I do a piss-poor job at it most of the time. Meanwhile, the clever little critters that share my space have found the perfect existence. They are fed, pet regularly, and kept warm by a fabulous benefactor who does everything for them, including hosting their own blogs and making friends for them. That poor schmuck is me. How did that happen? Who's going to feed me and keep me warm? So, until I become interesting enough to figure out how to get away with doing nothing and being happy doing it like they are, they will forever be more clever and interesting than me. Anyway, welcome to my first real attempt at taking back my life!
