About me

As you can probably tell from the title, my name is Dave. Yes, that’s my real name. But due to security and privacy concerns, that’s one of the few real names you’ll get out of me. Unless I otherwise specify, I’ll use cute pseudonyms and fictional references when talking about people, places, and things in my life.

I currently reside in Atlanta, GA, USA. Actually somewhere outside of it, towards the very edge of the suburban sprawl.

I live with my Dear Wife (also known as Yes Dear), my youngest 17-year old daughter PBJ, and a goofy boxer-mix named Ne-hi.

The purpose of this blog? To empty my brain of the (often) useless crap that clogs it. And to hopefully entertain those who stop by. And vent about things in my life and what’s on my mind. Subjects are variable, depending on my mood. I quite often alternate between funny and thoughtful, with occasional seriousness.

Though I’m sure I’ll make exceptions along the way, I try to avoid topics like religion and politics. Both subjects tend to bring out the worst in people and result in a lot of pointless flame-baiting. Religion in particular I consider a very personal topic to most people, so I try to avoid and discourage bashing of such. I’m also terrible at constructing logical arguments so I usually don’t indulge in those because I’ll usually lose them, whether I’m right or wrong. Most of what I’ll speak here are things straight from the heart. Or off the top of my head.

UPDATE: I’ve also added a post called 50 Things About Me, if anyone is interested in learning a little more.

Enjoy!
