“Humor is merely tragedy standing on its head with its pants torn.”
-Irvin S Cobb

My life is obscure. The random and bizarre events that seem to stalk me from my day to day have many of my friends sticking around just to appease their sense of curiosity of “what’s gonna happen next?” I don’t mind being my friends’ and others’ form of entertainment. If the obscurity of my life’s experiences entertains, then I’ll be happy that some good has come from it.

I’ve heard many times, “You know you’re living a Seinfeld episode, right?” Or. “You are my own personal sitcom! You have the best stories!” Which must mean there’s some kind of humor to be found in my tales. Personally I would equate my life experiences to watching a train wreck. You just can’t help but look. Especially when it’s a circus train with an abundance of flaming clowns…

I’ve always enjoyed writing. I started in my youth, but was never very good at it in school. Plain and simple, I didn’t like being told what to write about. In my teen years, I began writing for me. Sci-Fi primarily. I now have one self published book, the Puerta Tempus. Someday, I hope to sell the rights to it, and continue my career in the writing industry. For now, however, I’m continuing my writing exercises through working on additional novels and blogging here, on today.com.

I’ve seemed to overcome my rebellious nature as far as not liking being told what topic to cover goes. So if you have any suggestions, or would like my opinion on a specific subject, please feel free to share, and I will consider doing the same.

My hope is to entertain, vent, rant, ramble… All things therapeutic, really. I find misery doesn’t love company. It’s just comforted to know that it’s not alone, and as always, with a good laugh.
