Call Me

First Damn Post

Okay, I've begun the blog.  Nobody reading it, nobody cares, YET!

Me: I'm an archaeologist.  Sounds a lot cooler than it really is, and not nearly as cool as it really is.  Crack an Indiana Jones comment, and I might kick you in the nuts.  Ask me about what I study, and I will talk you to death.  The discipline is fascinating, the job is sometimes drudgery.

I have a reputation as a hot-head.  Not undeserved, but usually, my anger is with myself or a situation, and it is the way I cope and work through difficult problems.  I rant, stomp, curse (a lot), and seethe, until I solve the problem.  Unfortunately, most people think that I am angry with/at them, which is actually very rare, and I carry a burden that has negatively affected/effected (which freaking one, I can never get straight) my career.  Shit happens.

Since I doubt that anything will come of this blog, it will be interesting to see how long I stick with it.  There are several blogs that I admire, most notably Blag Hag, so I will try to emulate those.  Post often, even if it's brief.  I will likely bitch a lot, since it's what I do.  I will also drone on about my son, who is the greatest person I know.  And perhaps, I will find a way to work through some of the mental blocks that have hindered me for the last several years.

Until next time,
El Duque
