Crazy, Part 3

When that aforementioned reconsideration sets in, a lot of the posts that I kill or never finish are ones featuring me bitching about this or that aspect of my life. That's how this one started out. I've got some good bitches to share, and the stories would do well to round out the biographical sketch to newer friends who have not heard the familiar laments (girls, jobs, hopelessness, etc., etc.). But I hate the whinyness of it all, and I hate bitching about problems the solutions to which are obvious and apparent even to me. I worry, too (and again), about future readers. Romantic interests and employers being the most worrisome. I like to think that this blog should be a place to highlight my mad skills. It should sell my accuracy, intelligence, and clear thinking to potential employers in its presentation. It should sell my wit, charm, and intelligence to the ladies in my witty tales, ironic criticisms, and clever social commentary. But maybe those people never read beyond what's on the current, front page. Surely only a criminal or political investigation or a fiancee-hopeful would read through four-plus years of archives. Sometimes I worry about political investigations. Usually, that's because I'm paranoid about government intervention in the lives of the citizenry, but sometimes, that's because I wonder about a career in politics.

See? Crazy.
