I, I believe, I believe that I...

Will win. 

BUT, win what, exactly? 

That uncertainty is the question at the core of my self-worth. I am confident in my abilities. Abilities to do what? I am confident that I will be successful, however, successful in what? I am confident that I will eat a sandwich. But a sandwich made out of what? 

As a 23 year old man-boy, my life consists of inaction, procrastination and doubt, with the not so occasional dip into the deep end of arrogance. Quite the opposite of confidence. In fact, this perpetually cliché blog is, in and of itself, procrastination and doubt. Instead of giving words to my inaction, I should be giving thought and purpose to moving forward. Though, instead, I have decided to chronicle and lay my poor habits, brought on by poorer decisions, at the feet of the all-loving and forgiving Internet, courtesy of Al Gore. As fair warning, my vocabulary is lacking, my factual basis is incomplete and I ain't got no grammar skillz. I can only draw on the experiences and knowledge I have gained over the last quarter of a century that God or Zorp or The Seven have been so kind to grant me. However, I will do my best to be politically correct and socially appropriate, while leaving some room for purposeful stupidity (in a misguided attempt at humor). For if you can't laugh at yourself, who can you laugh at? Easy, everyone else. 

I will attempt to tie everything together into one coherent position. But incoherent tangents are inevitable and for that, I half-heartedly apologize. 

My only qualifying, intellectual achievements are that I have none. Besides a surreptitiously earned B. A. In Political Science from a state funded, albeit private institution, I can only claim that I am a relatively intelligent individual, however intelligent in what way and relative to what? I can read and write but I have lost an alarming amount of scrabble games to my infant niece.  Comprehension is a fickle friend. I will say that one certainty I know of in life, save death and taxes, is that Jon Snow and I, indeed know nothing. 

The only thing I ask of the reader (Hello, Mother) is to look at each post as a whole, rather than in parts. For I will do my absolute best to have some continuity and not contradict my own premise. But then again, maybe I won't. 

Beginning a race without a clear finish line is just 'yogging' in place.
