Why is blogging so difficult?

I haven't been back since I started this thing a few days ago. I think part of it is because I sit in front of a desk all day so it's hard for me to get excited about sitting in front of a desk all night as well. I'm also afraid I don't have anything cool or important to say to people. I'm not sure I should care. This is about me, not the unwashed masses looking for a quick glimpse into my world. I should be able to talk about anything or anyone. I'm going to try and do better here. I have to figure out how to get my thoughts formed in ways that make sense in a blog-like format.

Here's to new beginnings and boring blogs. God love'm! :)

So, am I Benny or Ben?

Good question. It depends on when you knew me. If you grew up with me through high school, you knew me as Benny. After high school, I gradually became Ben. I honestly can't remember why I changed my name, but I think it just sounded older and I was looking to grow up a little bit from my high school days. Have you outgrown your name during your life? Are there any Johnnies who are now John, or Timmy's who are now Tim?
