I’m starting to think that I may, perhaps, be extending the incorrect impression of myself.
My ‘about’ page goes into great detail about who I am, as do quite a lot of the posts I write. The title of my blog is currently Me! Me! Me me me!, which would tend to give a slight clue as to what the blog is actually about.
Yes, I am the centre of the Universe, but only my Universe. My Universe changes depending on the day of the week, which room I’m standing in, and which way the wind is blowing.
When I started blogging, almost three hundred years ago, I had the foresight to have the web address to be somewhat different to the blog title itself.
I’d never blogged before, well, professionalyish, and thought ‘Well, here goes nothing’, and that’s why I use Well Here Goes in the web address. Or Url.
‘Or Url’, funnily enough, is Neanderthal language meaning ‘come here’. Well, it actually means ‘come eat’ but if you are offering somebody something to eat, they have to come over to you anyway (however, if you left food for them and walked away, the phrase would then be ‘eat there’ which doesn’t actually fit, or make any sense with this post.)
So. That’s the address sorted.
The current name for my blog, all the ‘mes’, isn’t intended to be in any way egotistical at all. I’m far better than that. No, it’s a play on all of the various aspects that I have, that crop up from time to time. My Inner Zombie, for instance gets a mention usually in that type of post.
That particular ‘me’ is grumpy and groany, and fills a hole every now and then. Usually with a loose body part, but I’ll not go into that for now.
In the early days, the blog was a place for my thoughts to wander; a place for me to record wherever my mind went, and reminisce about days gone by, or dreams, hopes and aspirations. I’ve wandered slightly further since the early days. OK, I’ve gone that far off the beaten track, I’m lost.
Not lost in a bad way, but lost from the path I first set out on.
My superhero me is quite prominent on this blog, my vampire me less so, but he crops up every now and then. My traveller me (who hasn’t actually been mentioned yet in any post) is presently by far the most prominent aspect I have, although I don’t really travel that far at all. But the writer in me is always screaming loudly in the background. ‘Look at that bowl of custard!’ he will shout, as an example, and ‘think of a rhyme for fellow!’
We all know he was meaning mellow, or yellow, but he could equally have been meaning hello, particularly if you are, as I am, fond of a bowl of custard every now and then. The mouth waters, and you whisper dreamily ‘Hello!’… well I do anyway, when a bowl of custard is in my immediate vinicity. My spelling tends to go awry when custard is around too. Or even mentioned.
Oh. I seem to have left things a little late to get started on my A-Z, so that will have to wait for another post. Besides, every letter of the alphabet has been used in this post anyway, so that’ll cover it.
Every letter except one, that is.
So, to wrap things up… this blog is about me, my thoughts, my ramblings, my world, and everything else really. It’s meant to be a fun, feel good place for escape, a surreal reality stop off point, if you like. I hope I get that message across, otherwise I’ll need to have words with someone. One of the mes, but I haven’t decided which one yet…
Oh, and one more thing… thanks for reading! ![]()
