I’d like to start a blog.
I’ve been thinking about starting a blog for a long time. I thought about it, then thought about it some more…never moving beyond that thought. I couldn’t think of a name. Didn’t know what I would blog about. {checking twitter for blog posts} What do I have to offer the world that hasn’t already been written, blogged, tweeted, Facebooked, printed or otherwise over-communicated. {checking twitter for #overcommunicated stories}
So I thought about it some more. {checking twitter}

I’d like to start a blog.
I’ve been thinking about it for a long time.
And so goes my problem…

{checking twitter for missed tweets}

Then one day, as I was {checking twitter}, I realized it was nothing but a bunch of abstract ideas, thoughts, comments and regurgitated quotes from famous dead people I had never heard of. My wife sometimes reminds me that I can become quite distracted by the seemingly random tweets of others. I would laugh out loud and promptly repeat someone else’s humor to her as if she really needed to know what the infamous person who I’ve never met and only has 37 followers said about the guy who was bitten by the snake at the zoo which is 1300 miles away in a city neither of us has ever heard of. Random indeed. Random and abstract.

I’d like to start a blog. {checking twitter for #abstract}
Someday. What should I name it?
Let me check twitter. {checking twitter for unique blog names that haven’t been used}

My friend and coworker once told me that I tend to ramble when trying too hard to communicate a point I’m passionate about. Scratch that…
My coworker once told me that I tend to ramble when trying too hard to communicate a point I’m passionate about. Ramble? Me? {checking twitter for #rambling} I argued against her obvious misunderstand of a good communicator until she brought to my attention that I had been rambling on about me not rambling for five minutes. Friend fail. {checking twitter for hashtags of #friendfail}

I’m also looking for new friends.
{checking twitter for #newfriends}

After some thorough thought (about 8.3 seconds), I realized I do often ramble about abstract things. A lot. {checking twitter for #alot}

{checking twitter again for #alot}

So I’ve been thinking of starting a blog.
All I have in my head is a bunch of abstract ramblings. Things I think about…but not sure if I can say out loud. Or should say out loud. Or write about. Or quite possibly should even be thinking about. Am I rambling? {checking twitter for new updates on #rambling}

So here it is. Abstract Ramblings…things I write about…which may be kinda…abstract. And I might kinda ramble. I’m not sure how often I’ll post, what I’ll post, or even how long I’ll keep this up.

Or whether I’ll write something that will get me in trouble. Or arrested. {checking twitter for #tweetsthatgotmearrested}

Or make my wife mad at me. Or my kids picked on at the neighborhood park.

{checking twitter for #kidsthatgotpickedonbecausetheirdadwroteanabstractblogandshouldn’thave}

Couldn’t find anything on that one.

So here I am… the abstract rambling.
