Sat on your roof, young in 82
How you remember is how it remains
Turn down the lights so now I can die
We'll always remember how it remains
-The Anniversary "Emma Discovery"

Hey everyone.  I wanted to take a little bit of time and introduce myself.  My name is Dan.  I'm a coffee snob, vinyl enthusiast and huge Nintendo Fan.  I hope to reveal more about myself as my blogs go on.

I wanted to start this blog to start documenting.  History is something I find very important. Whether it be the history of how our country came to be, or who has won the last 50 Super Bowls.  I have been reflecting on my life and have realized that even though I am constantly researching past history, I have nothing to show of my own  If I was to die tomorrow, what would my legacy be?  Any music that I've ever written will be lost.  Any trips I've ever taken have only been documented in a few pictures for social media.  My memories only live inside my head.

This is why I'm starting this writing exercise.  I'm not really sure where it's going to lead, or what topics I will talk about.  I suppose this will just be a glimpse inside my mind; the weird and thoughtful, what music I have been listening to, what games I'm playing, what emotions I'm feeling.  I hope you read it and if anything, will laugh at my sometimes ridiculous antics.

PS I've always thought that sharing your favorite songs with someone is a really good way of getting to know someone on a different, more organic level.  This spotify playlist is a small glimpse at some of my favorite bands and my favorite songs from those bands.  Maybe this will help you get to know me a little bit better.

Enjoy, and thanks for reading.
