Confessions of an Ordinary Average Guy
I am an OAG. An ordinary average guy. Ok, there. I said it. And you know what? it sounds just fine to me. It's not like a big liberating moment or anything, but just feels nice to get it out there. With the infinite pressure in this world of ours to go above and beyond, to be out there, to get noticed, and to have others sucking up to you, it is nice to sit back and just be able to be me. Now I'm not saying that us OAG's are not successful, and that we don't have loves (family, baseball) and hates (mustard, mean people) and ups and downs just like everyone else. What I am saying that at some point you realize what and who you are, what is and isn't important in your life, and you embrace the good stuff and just live!
I often find myself surrounded by people that are just too friggin focused on the wrong things. Does it really matter how much you paid for that fancy watch or car? Do you really think that people can't tell that you die your hair? Is every hot every hot looking woman or man that walks by really "totally into you"? Come on people! As I get older, I find that I just don't have the patience or desire to be with these people. I just want to focus on what I feel is truly important in this world.
As I go forward with this blog, I am going to write about the things in my world as I see them. Interesting? I hope so. Thought provoking? Yep. Funny? Definitely! Ordinary and average. I guarantee that they will be, and that, my friends, is just fine with me. :)
