Welcome Everyone!!!

Hello!!! This is my very first "blog" entry ever. I read about these recently in a magazine (I can't remember if it was Time, or Newsweek) and decided to give it a shot. It seems kinda neat. Wow, that sounded really lame. I swear I'm not that big of a loser. Oh well...

So a little indroduction about myself. My name is JD, and I live in the great city of Minneapolis, all by my lonesome self in a decent sized 1 bedroom apartment. I'm in my mid 20's, dissappointed about being single (maybe I can find some internet babes!!!), and pretty much loving life. I graduated from SCSU (St. Cloud State University for those who aren't in the "know") 2 years ago, majored in Business Marketing, and minored in Fine Arts, specifically painting. I know, what a weird combo. I really love painting, but I'm just not good enough to make a living at it. And I'm not going to fool myself into believing I am, and end up some scuzzy looking fifty year old with long hair and a beard, who asks for spare change at the local coffee shop.

I work for a company that does title work. You know, like when you get a morgate for your home, you need to track and make sure the title to the deed is all in order, and arange to have it placed under your name, assuming the loan is approved. Or even if your simply doing a refi, you still need to verify the title. It isn't glamorous work by any stretch of the imagination, but it pays the bills, and I have enough left over to buy paints, stretchers, and canvas when I need to, and even feed my ongoing need to play video games. That's right, my number 1 pass time is the video game. I hate T.V. I think it's a waste of my valueable time. I love reading as well.

My good friend Erik lives in the same building as me, and shares my penchant for the vids. He's an IT worker for a small internet design company. He does quite well for himself. I always kind of wished I knew more about computers and things. I mean, I'm OK with them, but he's great. We've been absolutely glued to World of Warcraft these last couple of days. I can't seem to tear myself oway from it. It's everything people hoped Ultima Online would have been. I'm a dwarven Paladin, and he's a human Druid. We make a pretty killer comonation with some other friends we've made online. He turns into a huge bear, and is pretty much unstoppable in my Aura. Anyway, it's pretty fun, and if you haven't tried it, you should.

Well, I should get going, I'm actually at work, and I don't want to get busted for surfing the web on the company's payroll. I'll update again soon!


P.S. Happy Day after Thankgiving everyone!!!
