Good morning, and in case I don't see ya, good afternoon, good evening, and good night!



            I can’t believe it’s been more than four months since this whole thing started. I remember when I started creating this blog. I had no clue as to what to do with it. First thing I needed to do was decide on a title. The first thing that popped in my head was “Odyssey”. Next, what to do since ‘tis but a word? For one reason and another the movie 2001: A Space Odyssey came to mind and well the rest is history. After I had the title down, I needed to spruce it up a bit. Since the word odyssey was in the title, it seemed appropriate to make it the theme of the whole blog and that is why I chose a drawing of The Odyssey as my background. So, I had a title and background, but something was clearly missing. “Of course!” – I screamed in my head. How could I not attach epic music to my blog? It’s so obvious. That’s when I went ahead and spent the next hour trying to attach a music file to my blog. The only way I managed to do it was to put it on autopilot and without any option to deactivate. I even forgot how to take it off so if the constant epicness of my blog is annoying you, you have my sincerest apologies.

            At first, writing these blog posts was not easy in the slightest. I’d spend an hour, maybe an hour and a half just thinking about what to write. I guess, much like any skill, writing takes practice. After the first few blog posts, things just flowed through me like water in a river. It got to a point where I had fun writing these posts because I always tried to find some humor in them and later, when I had to decide which picture or video I was going to attach to the post, I’d start laughing and found myself enjoying most the time spent doing this work. Like many things, it takes getting used to in order to feel comfortable and get the most out of the experience. I very much wanted to embellish my blog a bit more, but I’ll be damned if I am not blog-incompetent. For about two hours, I tried creating a new page on it to no avail. Maybe this is my handicap. Either way, I hope that anybody who reads this has enjoyed going on this ride with me the same way I have. Thank you for taking time out of your day to hear me ramble on about things.

    I'll have you know, the constant epicness gets to be too much some times.
    I spent an entire night (Read: from 9 to 1 am) trying to get /my/ blog the way it is now.
    It wasn't easy. But after many tutorials and youtube videos on how to get things done on blogger, i'm very satisfied w/ what I ended up with.

    You know, Debora has a talent for finding great quotes, Kevin has a talent for finding great pics, and your talent is obviously finding gifs and videos that are always on point.
