A new beginning

Well, I'm starting yet another blog. I used to blog fairly regularly on MySpace. Ah, yes, MySpace, the abandoned amusement park of the internet. After reading over a lot of the posts, I really don't remember a lot of what was going on when I wrote them. Of course, I remember the big stuff--breaksups, crushes, etc. I'm actually a little surprised at what I posted there. So I'll start with this guy for a while. Maybe I can get something going on a regular basis. For now, I intend this to be some sort of catharsis, a place where I can just vent and get things out there.

Current mood: Confused

I have a problem in the way I deal with people. I am one of these folks that over analyzes everything. It's kinda my job as a budding historian to analyze things and think critically, so in some ways I can't help it. In others ways, however, I am probably just crazy. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. With most people, what you see is what you get. Except I look for what I'm not getting, or what I could be getting. Combine the overanalyzing with a wild imagination, and you get the problem I have of running conversations in my head. I much prefer the written word for conversations because the act of texting, chatting, or emailing forces me to choose my words carefully, and not just blurt out the first thing that comes to mind, which is usually something clumsy. I share too much, use the wrong words, or muck up whatever I'm trying to get across.

Someone told me I should write. So this will be an attempt to do just that.
