Introduce Yourself (me introducing myself)

Well boys and girls, I’m attempting to start a blog, we’ll see if this works. I’m not very organized, and I’m not near as creative as my ego thinks I am.

Why do this? (A question the blog is asking me to answer?)

  • As a construction worker, I don’t really get the opportunity to express myself or my creativity. (Although I had a 1’3″ wall the other day, 10-W-8-1-4-inside corner! Double Z-Ties! One of my greatest feats, also my boss yelled at me) [“Wow, is this is the blog? This is going to suck, big time.”- my future readers. p.s. I’m using parenthesis until I find out how to use footnotes. Ya’ll know I’m a footnote man.]
  • I’ve written 2 Christmas cards and enjoyed writing so why not try it in the other 11 months of the year! (If you didn’t receive one I’m sorry, I’m going to post them on here so you can read them. If you think you deserve to be on the list you can ask but think before you ask, imagine if you don’t get one, it’d be an all-time low to be rejected by Eric)
  • So I’m going to try this, we’ll see if
    • A) I actually use this,
    • B) if its worth reading (thats up to you guys)
  • Now with the final bullet point, you may be wondering, “What is our good friend Eric going to blog about?” Good question! He has no clue! I have some ideas, they may be good, they may be bad. We’ll have to see what hits. Some topics that might pop up are:
    • Work Stories
    • Various power rankings (I wanted to do weekly Big Ten power rankings but lets be honest, I don’t watch enough games or have enough interesting things to say on a weekly, but at some point we’ll have at least one set of rankings of the Big Ten variety)
    • Every December my Christmas letter will appear on here.
    • Other life milestone like the beef jerky story!

Well guys, it’s going to (I’ve typed the word “gonna” like a thousand times in this post, it’s gonna be hard to kick this habit) be a wild ride, thanks for reading this far. Here’s to hoping this isn’t the last one!
