I’m Sam and I’ll be your blogger today

First and foremost let me introduce myself.  My name is Sam and I am a 25 year old gay man who lives in Erie, PA.  After spending several years here for college and my inability to land a job outside of the city I’ve decided to stay for a while and bide my time working around the city.

 

Secondly, let me explain what has spurred my striking out into the world known as blogging.  I recently attended a small birthday celebration at the Plymouth Tavern for a friend’s 25^th birthday when I realized that I needed something more to do in life.  I signed my friends birthday card “Welcome to the 25 year old club” and it struck me…the only other person that was at the table at the party who was 25 was me…glup.  It got me thinking, what have I done with my life…with my degree’s I’ve earned from college etc.  I am single and don’t date much, my job is not what I went to college for etc. and somewhere in this mid-20’s crisis I was beginning to suffer I thought “I know I’ll blog,” because that’s what I needed to do. 

 

Blogging was going to answer all of my aforementioned questions, or at least I though so at the time.  So here I sit in another state of crisis wondering who in the world thought giving me a blank sheet of internet was a good idea.  Who will want to hear what I have to say or what neurosis I have to share?  To be quite honest it has me a little shaken up.  Part of me wants to just give up and close up the account and just piddle away doing the normal day to day activities that I have become accustom to but then there is the other side of me that wants to see what blogging is like.

 

Finally, I know this might sound cliché, but I am going to give blogging a try.  I will post on the usual dating, or lack there of, friends, different shenanigans and drunken messes I tend to get myself into.  I hope you enjoy it and perhaps I will answer some of those questions I have been worrying about recently.

 

Enjoy there is more to come from my Presque Isle files!
