I have started many blogs.

here's a quick history of my blog history. Wait what? Here's a history of my blogs. God, no wonder they never last:

1. The Blog I paid a lot of money for: vagueah.com
300$ down the drain for an adsense experiment. If you don't know, Adsense is google's advertising thingee for websites whereby every time someone clicks an ad on your page you get some coin. Total money earned by my blog: $4.00. Total money I collected: 0. you have to make at least a hundo or google won't pay you anything. Smart on their part.

2. Myspace blogs
Ok enough said.

So, I'm in Florida rather bored-ah and I'm thinking "why do I always think of ambitious things to write and then never write them?" Here's why: I like to write really stupidly technical shit. My computer is filled with documents where I try to figure out what selves are, or if the color red is really real, or if morality really is subjective. Here's the thing, I'm not necessarily bad at writing shit like that, but fuck dude, I don't want to sit there and hone that so it's readable for a mass audience. So, I guess that's why I never am able to write anything, too ambitious. Nonetheless, with this blog I am to just write whatever. I will literally hold myself to no standard in no way and will do my best to just write something, read it over as little as possible, and submit it. Why? Because I feel like the more I write, like the more I talk, the more I have to say. In other words, i feel like I'll be a better conversationalist if i have a blog. Surely, my conversation is helped by the fact that I write comedy frequently, but this doesn't quite translate as nicely as a blog. And the reason for my lack of precise high standards, extremely conversational style, occasional use of profanity, goofy grammar, is grounded in the fact that conversation plays by these rules. So yeah, blog more so I can be better at talking.

(by the way, all my blogs have me starting off by justifying why I think a blog is a good thing which i believe is rooted in the fact that deep down I believe blogs are masturbatory, inane, and thoroughly unsexy)
