My First Selfish Blog

I’ve tried to start probably eight different blogs (that are still up and running somewhere on the interweb), but they’ve always been about topics that I liked: music, movies, writing, ect. Now i’m finally starting this here easy little blog to write about me.

I expect the next few months to be pretty hectic and I wanted to have a place to document my “moves” and career change. What better place than the easiest way to blog for lazy people, tumblr?

For right now I still have to be careful with what and how I say things online, but those of you closest to me know what I’ll be doing in the coming months. If you need a hint, look below.

Stay tuned.

How am I so late to the Cut Copy train? I know, I know, they were in Spin, XLR9R and a ton of other magazines, but now they’re on Burz, hah. If you like the music that I usually throw your way, then you’ll love these guys. They’re australian formerly from Death From Above. Yea, I know, late to play. Whatever.

Downtown Durham. My new home? I think it’ll be good inspiration for me while I write. I have a vacation there in a few weeks to see the area and determine the best “move” for the future.
This sunlight doesn look inviting though, doesn’t it?
