Minimal Souvenirs: the origin story of my blog (abridged)

This is my blog. It wasn't always here. How did it come to be you ask? Why start a blog? Come closer, and i will whisper a whimsical tale in your ear like a humble hobo. It's the tale of how this blog came to be. Told by the very man who wrought it forth with nimble fingers and able mind. It's abridged, so here we go.

I've known about blogs for quite some time, but i'd never really wanted one. I never really felt i needed one. So why start now? Change is inevitable? Change is probable. What changed? Why am i asking these ridiculous questions?
... I don't know...
Here's what happened in its simplest form. A friend of mine spoke to me of the lure of blogs... and i was intrigued. I had further fictitious conversations with him in my mind concerning blogs, and he spoke of them as if they were drugs. These fictitious conversations amused me slightly in an absurd comical sense, though not enough to be considered for effectuation. I have many of these fictitious mental conversations with various people. They're pretty much a daily occurrence. Call me crazy. No really... Go ahead, get it out of your system... Good? OK. As i was again made aware of the frequency of these strange conversations that i simulate in my mind, it occurred to me that it might be interesting to write about. But where to write it? Ah yes... that brings us full circle. Blog.
I'd like to say that the focus of this blog will be specifically on my mentally simulated conversations, and the effect this mental quirk has on relationships, decision making, sanity, etc. However, i know that won't be the case. I'm sure the end result of this blog will inevitably be just a collection of random thoughts.

So... if you're looking for some insight into the intricacies of my mind, well... this will have to do. Good luck.
