Introduction
August 18th, 16:08
Hello there. My name is Jim Kirk. I suppose I should give you a little introduction or something now or I'd be a really shitty blogger. Okay then. Here goes. I'm a junior in college, from Iowa, and I'm about to move in to an off-campus house with my friend Bones. No, not that kind of friend. Seriously. We're not together. I work nights at a local bar because this house is seriously expensive. Not to mention the whole college education thing. We can fit at least three or four more people here and we hope that'll help pay the rent. No takers yet, but we haven't even started advertising for it yet.
You're probably wondering: why a blog? I'm kind of wondering that myself.
Two reasons, probably. One, I've been told by multiple people that my 'adventures' should be written down and published, so there's that. Two, I really don't feel like moving a bunch of heavy boxes around and unpacking right now. I am a bit of a procrastinator.
1701 Enterprise Lane is a really nice house. The downstairs has a kitchen, this big living room area with a fireplace and everything, a library, and a dining room. On the second floor there's five bedrooms and this small office thingy. On the third floor there are three rooms. Bones has suggested we use that for storage.
Oh yeah, I should probably describe Bones. He's three years older than me, in pre-med. Pretty damn smart, but don't tell him I said that. He'd have an aneurism and there'd be no one to treat him. He has a daughter who's two that he never gets to see. It gives him this sort of weary aura that makes him seem older than he is. I like him. He sees me for me, instead of the poor half-orphaned son of my father the great tragic war hero. His name was George Kirk. You've probably heard all about his heroics and shit in school when the war is brought up. Sacrificed himself for the nation and all that jazz. What a hero.
We've got a few weeks before classes start to get settled in. I probably won't ever work on this blog but whatever. I'm gonna go order a pizza now. Kirk out.
