This is Michael and I Approve this Blog

Hello blog reader...and someday (hopefully) "readers!"

So, just like half of the free world, I've decided to start my very own blog. This is something that I have always wanted to do, but I'm not for sure why. I always enjoy talking about my observations although I have never written about them, so this is my chance. I never really understood the purpose of a diary; why would you want to write something that no one can see? Realistically, that is what I'll be doing when I post a new blog, because even though no one will see this they at least have the chance to see it.

With that, here are the "W's" on this blog:

WHO
Michael Kremer. Just a normal guy who is working his way through the world with no more questions or answers than the next person. At the first posting of this blog I am in the midst of leaving my current job, looking at working on my master's degree full-time in approximately 8 months. I've been happily married for the last three years and our only little one, Sadie, has four legs and a slightly more hairy body than me (she will likely be in the focus of some, if not many, of my future blogs). I live just North of Chicago, love the summer months, and do not wear scarves in the winter. I'm never as funny as I think I am, I'm not as good as I say I am, and I can never hold my liquor quite like I'm convinced I can. Like I said, just a normal guy.

WHAT
A blog where I get to write about what ever I want to, really. From the ridiculousness that is known as American politics to how annoying Red Bull and Olive Garden commercials are. Some of it will be more pertinent than others, but all of it will come straight from the huge melon of mine that sits on top of my neck and I'm forced to look at daily.

WHEN
I would like to think that I can at least make a couple posts weekly, but given that I'll be sans job in approximately three weeks, it may start out being a little more frequent than that.

WHERE
Really--you need to ask? I mean, you're already here: http://MyKremerica.Blogspot.com. I seriously thought you would have just known that...

...and WHY
Recently, I have started taking more note to the world around me--politically, socially, environmentally, commercially, and in many other "-ally" ways--and I cannot just help but speak my mind. I'm sure I'll make mistakes in my thought processes, be inconsistent, and contradict myself, so if I do (and you've read enough to catch it) call me out! I'm always up for a good debate or opportunity to find something out about myself.

So that's how it all starts out. A little about myself to get you started, but I'm sure more will come out with subsequent blog posts, possibly more than you wanted to know. Welcome to my world, The Detached State of Kremerica.

Enjoy!
Michael

  2. Wow, the first to comment? I saw the old Gmail status, and it became clear that yes, in fact, he DOES have a blog. Nice man!

    I have to admit, when I had the time, I really enjoyed writing in my blog while overseas last year. Yet when I didn't have the time, but was still forced to write something to inform family that I wasn't floating dead in the Mekong, I felt my work was weak. It's all about quality, but, not quantity! Hell, once per week and I'll be entertained. Looking forward to reading on...

    Oh, and seriously, a "normal" guy? Hahaha, right.

  3. Update this damn blog already. What the hell?!? Are you living in a third world company and have no access to email? Stop being a lazy slug and humor us, or the masses will rise up!
