Mission Statement

I started a blog a couple years ago and it didn't take me long to burn out on it. The reason being that nothing too interesting was going on in my life at the moment. The game has certainly changed since then. Now I'm a college graduate with a degree in English. Time to figure out the rest of my life. I currently have no job and about $700 to my name. I am legally unemployed. I've got those post graduate blues.
So what is the point of me starting a blog? Let's see how many reason I can think of.
#1. A few years ago I went to an event where the guest lecturer was Academy Award winner Diablo Cody. She said that if you want to be a writer you have to take every opportunity to make your writing public. I want to be a writer and I'm a stand up comedian so here I am making my writing public.
#2. I believe this will keep me from going insane. I've already got the blues. I don't need to be sleeping into scheizophrenia as well. So let's chalk this up to staying in good help.
#3. I know I'm not the only one going through something like this. I'm hoping my mishaps and successes as I chronicle them will help comfort others knowing that all hope is NOT lost. It's a two way street so if you want to e-mail or comment to keep my spirits and keep me from reaching for the revolver then do it.

Three. I came up with three decent reasons and I think I'll stop it right there. Join me in my adventures against the post-grad blues as I try to find a job, make career choices, give hilarious commentary on global issues and try not to live at home until I'm forty.

  1. I hope you don't stay too blue. But I think this is a good venture and a positive outlet, so good luck!
