The Beginning

So I decided to start writing a blog. Why? I'm not entirely sure. Partly because I think it will help me think about things if I know someone will read my opinions. Partly because I want to make myself a better writer through practice. Partly because I want to put in my 1.7 cents on things. And partly because I thought the name "Metaphorical Explosions" would be cool. I just hope I'm worthy of such an interesting title...
