The first post of the rest of my life

So I've started a new blog. That's what you're reading right now. My new blog.

Anyway, I wanted to write about things that I am interested in, or things I find interesting. However, that is a very broad topic to write about. Therefore, I have chosen to write about things I like. I happen to like baseball, so I will write about the Twins and Brewers when I can. I like music, but I don't know much about it or care to know much about it, so I'll write about what I do and don't like, and perhaps why, about music. I like interesting news stories, so I'll post links and comment on the stories, if they need comment. Finally, sometimes I have thoughts or ideas that I find funny, entertaining, or interesting. Some of those thoughts will make their way on to this blog, hopefully.

I live in Virginia now, for the next six months, at least. I'm working on campaigns here, but I won't be writing about my work at all. Nor will I be writing about politics, since that is work for me, and I don't want to spend personal time on work stuff. I will have plenty of non-work Virginia-related stories that I'll post here, though.

One final thing. I stole two of the things for this blog from my friend and former roommate, James Davison. He has a blog at akwardyoungshadow.blogspot.com. You should check it out. My title for the blog is from a Bare Naked Ladies song, much like his is from a favorite band of his. Also, you'll notice that my posts have an author title that is not simply my name. Bonus points to you if you know where it was from, but I wouldn't have known the reference without James.
