And so it begins...

"The beginning of all things are small..."
Cicero.

So this is it, my first blog, and as with all beginnings, I feel it is wise to begin with a greeting and an introduction.

So Hello All, and welcome to Crazyblade's little part of the World Wide Web.  Actually, it's like the little cubbie hole in the arse end of nowhere, but that's ok.  Cicero was indeed correct, and I am a patient man.  Oh, and yes, the observant among you will have caught the "arse" instead of "ass" there - I am a Englishman, a Brit if you will, so don't worry if spellings look a little strange, we just spell things correctly.

:)

So who am I?  Well, I'm a 30 something year old man from the North of England.  I'm your average joe, I guess.  A lover of movies and music and, yes, love and romance.  I'll happily face the music, but be warned, I don't dance.  At all.  Something to do with balance, and a lack of co-ordination, amongst other things.  I'll tap my feet along, but I'll leave the dancing to the dancers, thankyou very much.

I'm a big gamer - yes, adults play games too - and love a variety of genres from racing to RPGs to shooters and everything in between.  I'm sure I'll discuss games at length very soon.  I am a 'metalhead', for want of a better term, but my I-Tunes is an eclectic affair.  There are certainly the head nodding bands on there - the wonderful new album from Machine Head, "I Am Locust", being my latest purchase and an absolute masterpiece - but I'm also known to listen to soundtrack albums; a little rap every now and again; hey, even the odd show tune if I'm in the mood (and if the wife has had "Glee" on in the background! Grr...).

Am a also an amateur writer (aren't we all?) working on my first full novel currently.  It's not easy to do, but I am absolutely determined.  I hope that I can keep people up to date here.

So there we go for a first blog, and a little bit of an introduction.  Where do we go from here??  Only time will tell.  If you do like what you hear so far, and you'd like to kept up to date with when my blogs go up, and hear my daily babble on all things Star Wars, my beloved Sheffield United, and the world in general, feel free to follow me on Twitter @crazybladeuk.

Keep smiling!
