Mind Nuggets

So, I was going through my Google Reader and began to feel guilty about my lack of recent posts. So here's one for your reading pleasure...

It seems like people have themes for their blogs, such as family, art, "my crazy life," writing or whatever... and I'm perfectly aware that for better or worse mine would probably fall into those categories (art being anything about what Em is up to, she can't help it, an artist is what she is.) I think I like to think of myself as a deep thinker, but to be honest, I really don't like sharing those thoughts too much. I like to think about how things fit together (sure the people in the Book of Mormon came over in boats but who's to say people didn't cross a land bridge too,) Politics (rolling my eyes until next week,) and more recently, how would I say that in french or even silently sounding out long french words I just learned in class while watching ESPN during lunch or on the Metro ride home. These are just a couple things. An odd thing though, I'm not much for sharing what's on my mind.

Ask anyone who has tried to talk to me on the phone, I'm not much of a talker, and sometimes I'm afraid that I may give the impression that all I think about is soccer, WoW and, "I'm really enjoying this semester." What's even worse is that I have a habit of steering conversations toward what I want, sometimes to the point of ignoring the other person (but let's just face it, I am that interesting.)

I suppose this brings my back to the blog. There's things that I think would be great to write about, but I feel I'd either alienate people or... even worse... be boring to read. I think it's a combination of the two that sometimes leads to my lack of blogginess. I suppose I could do more lists and stuff, but to be honest I like reading them but despise doing them.

I also feel bad when I don't put in pictures or links, because, let's be honest, that's kinda what we hope for when checking out the blogs of others.

I just read over the blog and decided it was rather melancholy. I suppose it's needed from time to time. And who doesn't feel the slightest bit melancholy when their at work at 1 in the morning.

I want to end on a happy note, because that's essentially where I'm at in life...
So here's my favorite comic sites:
Red Meat
Get Fuzzy
Foxtrot (but only on Sundays)
Ding! (it's a WoW one)
DM of the Rings (What if LoTR was an RPG... oh wait... it is)
