here she is

Well. Hello world, (which I am fully aware may or may not consist of the ten one person who might actually end up reading this [hey mom!]) here it is, MY BLOG.

I've thought about this blog a number of times and for a number of reasons, none of which on their own seemed to justify starting an entire blog--but perhaps cumulatively, my various reasonings will comprise a thoughtful, world-changing, epic DIYing, and just overall evocative read for the masses. OR maybe we'll just look at pictures of Rudy all day. Probably we'll just look at pictures of Rudy all day.

I could tell you all about myself, but I think those of you who will actually read this probably already know, and the few strangers who might stumble upon this site will be able to gather what they need to know of me from the content (likely, that I am a shameless freak of nature obsessed with her dog). Instead, I'll tell you what this blog will be won't be:

dependable

I have a problem following through with things. It is my fervent hope however, that this blog will not be one of those things, but rather an exercise in persistence...though even as I type this sentence I am nervously eyeing the time at the upper right of my screen, hoping to finish this in the 16 minutes before the teen mom (original cast, duh) final season premieres. So, here's to sticking with it, pending that Bravo and/or MTV don't come out with any more fan-fucking-tastic shows. There it is, I decided that this blog will have cursing, just like that. 

funny
I can't promise that this blog will be funny. Mostly because when I think something is funny I generally first, creepy batman-dark-knight grin (RIP heath) to myself as I write it, and subsequently, break out in full on hives overanalyzing whether or not it was in fact funny, or if it was actually offensive/sent to my boss (more on that in a later post because yes, it happened)/just overall too contrived/all of the above. But, hopefully I'll hit the post button whilst the joker grin still lingers on my lips, so that something actually makes it on this site.

expletive free
Trying to clean it up, but there's something just so GD (see what I did there?) refreshing about dropping one in there every once in a while.

unchanging
Similar to the, was that actually funny? internal debate, are all decisions that I make in my life. I'm fairly certain that I have adult-onset-self-induced anxiety and as a result, question basically EVERYTHING that I do. ad nauseum. Lord help me I'm already barfing over the way that this thing is going to look until I can figure out how to format a blog properly, (or use the internet for anything other than googling puppy frenchie videos and the baby Lisa case. Seriously, what happened to her?) I'm 99% sure the domain name, and I'm assuming that means website address, is going to change, given that when I tried looking up hellorudy just now, some sort of Rudy Giuliani bashing blog came up. Which, to each his own, but I'm not trying to have my pup's name dragged through the mud through some mis-associated slanderous mix-up.

I've made three, and only three decisions effortlessly since I was 17 years old. The first, to go to Wake Forest, and that was because my tour guide winked at me. The next, to go to architecture school immediately following undergrad, and that was probably because I was too lazy/scared/drunk to think about a real job at 21. But, it worked out well, for the most part (more on that later!). And lastly, and most unquestionably so, was the decision to purchase Rudy (with a student loan, with an interest rate that kicks my rear, monthly).

So, suffice it to say, the background, content, URL, and pretty much anything about this blog is up for change. Or retraction. So tread lightly with your comments, pls and thnx.

The one thing that will remain consistent, cute, funny, expletive free, dependable, radiant, pure, true, and holy etc. etc. will ALWAYS be, POSTS OF RUDY!!!


I leave you with this.
