Now I went and done it...

Ok, I decided to be a bit brash last night, and I'm sure I'm going to regret it at some point. For the moment at least, I don't care... I'm glad I did it...

What did I do? Simple... I posted a story --- called "A Treatise on Fate" ---  I worked on about 12 years ago on my writing blog. Like I said, I'm probably going to regret it some day; some body out there is probably going to plagerize it and claim it's theirs. A good part of me would like to say I'd just laugh it off, because I'd know the truth and I want to share that work at least. But the truth is, I know that I'd be insanely jealous and angry if someone ripped off my work, and made a fortune on it...

Well, we'll see how it plays out one day.

Life as a Newly Single Man...

First off, let me say that this is not my first blog. Heck, right now I have blogs just about everywhere... I seem to be addicted to them. Well, to creating them at least. I have a blog on my personal site that I wrote, at MySpace, and one specifically for writing. And all of that is in addition to my journal that is offline... You can probably learn more about me than I ever wanted to let be known, or than you would ever want to know... So why start another one?

Why the hell not? I'm reasonably young, fairly intelligent, and definitely bored with my current life. I want a new life, and I'm working on it.

A few good friends and I are working on a top secret project. Ok, it's not top secret, but I'm not going to tell you about it because it would ruin the mood. The simple truth is that it's a project for us to let our hair down (so to speak, since none of us has long hair), relax, and have fun with each other, and hopefully a ton of other people. It's probably a few weeks away from being ready, but I'm sure that I'll mention it again at some point. If I continue to write entries here.

So why create this blog at all? Well, one of those very same friends recently set up a blog here, and I was curious if I'd be able to direct a domain name I purchased several years ago to his new home on the web. I had created a web site for him, and he never quite used it for anything, even though he had me post a fair amount of his artwork to it. So now that he's got a blog here and posting his artwork here, I wanted to know if he wanted me to redirect his domain name. The answer, simply, is yes, I could. I had to find out by creating an account here...

This is not to say that this site is unwanted; like I said, I seem to be addicted to expressing myself in blogs... But I really don't know how often I will make it back this way.

So, enough about that....

As the title of this little blog suggests, I'm a newly single man, coming out of 8 years of marriage. I'm not going to talk about that here, but I'm going to say that I am looking for a new leading lady to spend some time with. All potential applicants can apply here... I do have a profile up on a leading dating site, but I'm not going to link to it, nor am I going to state which one because I want a separate and hopefully unbiased backup plan...

Drop me a comment or two if you're curious about this youngish Detroiter...
