Tales From October Volume II

Hi, my name is Jonathan Creech and I haven't had my own internet connection for more than a few months. And yes, I realize that is very odd, considering I am only 23, but I also didn't grow up with television at home or video games so having these things now is a definite change.

Yes, I moved away from home for the last time nine months ago and very quickly decided what I wanted to do differently on my own and what I wanted to continue doing the same as when I still lived at home.

So as soon as I was able I bought a computer, got online and bought a tv set and dvd player. We never had a tv, but we saw movies at the theatre. Not as many as I would have liked to, but we saw a handful each year. I have a lot of catching up to do.

Mind you, Sunday is still very much a day for family as I still go to Church and spend most of the days with them, save for Softball season where I slip off in the afternoon and play with some friends I've met recently.

Fortunately, both Mom and Dad joined in a few times last season and have said they will again this year. So that makes me happy.

All in all, life is good.

And why shouldn't it be? I have a degree and a job because of that degree. I live on my own and am enjoying my life as a carefree bachelor with a close relationship with my parents. I can't think of any changes I would want to this life now.

Of course, change happens when we aren't looking for it. Case in point? An e-mail with an attachment that I've yet to open. For some reason, October, as he called himself thinks I might be interested in his gathered blogs and wants me to continue on in his stead.

Maybe I'm just too curious for my own good, but I want to see what more there is to this, which is why I didn't delete his e-mail and have posted this blog, my first by the way.

Yes, I've toyed with the idea of writing over the years, but never did anything other than some poems and short stories in High School that my teachers were enthusiastic over. So if nothing else, his curious e-mail has inspired me to post my first blog.

But I have to go now, I got called into work on a special project so opening the attachment will have to wait until tomorrow.

Peace And Happiness Friends.
