so my friend tim says i should blog...he's kind of a goofy guy.
basically i'm trying my best to "gitrdun"
i guess you could say i'm a blog virgin!
i'm not really sure what the hell i'm supposed to be doing on this sort of thing so i'll just give it a shot.
they say bloggers are supposed to talk about things that are controversial so that other cool bloggers read your stuff and put you as a link on their site so other cool bloggers can find you and the process repeats itself.
so the question is, what will i write about
had a conversation today with my boss. these are always interesting. told him about some things that i wasn't too keen on and why. he's a good listener which i will give him credit for. great at the old "what i hear you saying" stuff they teach you in com101 in college. i laughed at that stuff when i heard it, but it makes you feel like you are being heard in a conversation such as the one i had this morning. that's never a bad thing. being heard i mean. isn't that really what we all want deep down at some subconcious level? just to be heard for what we are really saying! at any rate, got some things out on the table and told him that somedays i wasn't all that sure that church and being the employee of one is on my top five things to do with my life. he responded pretty well considering if i leave, they have to find some other crazy ass kid who will hang out with senior high kids for way too many hours a week for way too little money. i think it was as good for me as it was for him. i got to say some things that i have only been able to say to myself in the confines of my own head for the past two weeks but this time the real live person that i was directing the comments to was there. this is a weird thing. somehow it sounds so much better in my head. i recite and recite, speak at the mirror and all sorts of crazy shit (that you only hope no one actually sees you doing) and then when the time comes there is way too much looking at your shoes and "do you know what i mean?" maybe it's just me, but that's usually the way it goes down. i guess the moral of the story is, it's better to talk to real people instead always practicing with yourself. you become a better communicator and listener i suppose.
