It's just you and me.

Alright Tumblr, I am sick of you just sitting here not doing anything. You never get off of your lazy ass and update yourself, so it looks like I’m going to have to do it. The only problem with that, is that I don’t have much to say. Look, I could sit here spewing my personal problems to everyone, but that would just make this blog look like a suicide note not fully realized. It’s not like anyone can comment on this thing anyway.

Well, how about this. I’ll tell you about some new happenings in my life. I’ve been trying to write some new songs lately, but I’ve always come to a problem in songwriting. It’s very hard to make honest lyrics without feeling foolish about what I am writing. This, ladies and gentlemen, is why I choose to write comedy songs instead. They are far less personal, and they don’t require me to look like a fool. Well, I do look like a fool, but for different reasons. Sure, I’ve written a few serious songs, but I’m not sure that they will ever see the light of day. With a comedy song, all you have to do is get the laugh, and the mission is accomplished. With a serious song, you need to make your listener feel something, either through the music or the lyrics. It’s difficult to do this without making yourself feel embarrassed in the process. It’s also difficult because you are constantly worried about that your audience will think of the song. You are worried that they’ve overestimated your abilities, or that they have no faith in you at all that they are deriving satisfaction from your artistic failure.

Either way, that’s enough for now. I’ll be back.

This thing confuses me.

Hello, it's me again.

Alright, here I am with yet another blog. To be honest, this really seemed like the hippest blogging website, so here I am. I mean, you know me, I’ve got to be hip. If I really wanted to be cool, I would type this post in all lower case letters.

I’m not going to do that though.

Social networking? I’ve been pretty much a whore to it. Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Blogger, Xanga, and a few others. I guess we’ll see how this one works out. Truth be told, it’s really hard to navigate here because I’m so overwhelmed by the options. I’ve got no idea what I’m doing, but here’s hoping that I’ll master this tumblr. Speaking of tumblr, how exactly is it pronounced? Tumbler? Toomblurgh? Obama? I’ma go with the first option.

So, I guess there isn’t really a theme to this blog. If you remember, I had one during my first year of college that I ocassionally updated, but I just got bored of it. I think one of the reasons that I got so bored was because:

• Nobody Commented
• It took forever to make long witty posts.
• Blogger was again, no where this hip.

I guess that I never really introduced myself. I’m Brandon. I like music, comedy, and acting. I’m about to turn 19, and I spend half of the year going to school in New York City. The other half I live in a rural town that used to be home to John Wilkes Booth, assassin of President Abraham Lincoln. I am part time unemployed, full time awesome. I make up one half of the comedy band ‘Sponsored By Poverty’, and I love eating bread.

Alright, you’re just going to have to stay tuned to hear more from me. I’ve got a show in the evening, and dream land awaits.

G’night.
