The purpose of this blog.

If you know me at all, you know that I forget or lose stuff all the time.  Names of people (hint: if I ever call you "dude", there's a really good chance I can't remember your name.  This especially applies if you're a girl and I still call you "dude"), where I've put things, when important events took place, etc.  It's gotten worse since I've been married, when Tammy became my crutch for remembering most things and my natural mental laziness got to stretch and grow to its full potential.  Now I'm ahead of the game if I can find my car in the morning without asking my wife.

But I've learned to live with it - calling everyone unwelcome nicknames and terms of endearment because I can't remember their names, going without whatever it is that I was looking for (iPod, I miss you...), and relying on the patience of my wife when she tells me (again) that my coat is probably hanging up near the front door where it always is.  However, the one thing that really gets me is when I hear or see something that really amazes me - a song, a website, a book - and then forget about it.  That kills me.

And that's really where this blog comes in.  This space is for stuff that I really like and, more importantly, don't want to forget.  I hope you like it too, but, again, it's really more for me than you.  (Hopefully, I won't forget my username and password.)
