 Those of you who know me, know that I think John Mayer is incredible. Don’t judge me. I don’t really care what you think of me. You can NOT deny the fact that the guy has incredible guitar skills. Don’t believe me? YouTube some of his live stuff. His voice has grown on me, and while “Battle Studies” is not his strongest work (which he’s even admitted) I still think the guy has talent oozing from his pores.
I just found out about Alexa.com today (shut it, so I’m a little behind on certain things), and have since started implementing

I decided that I needed to fuel myself, so I put on my hoody, slipped on my shoes and headed out the door to walk down to the corner gas station and grab myself a Mountain Dew, and a Hershey’s Milk Chocolate with Almonds. Rounding the corner out of my apartment complex I happened to see that if I kept going at the speed I was currently at, I’d run right into two 12 year olds coming home from school (I’m assuming). And that’s just awkward. You know what I mean…when you’re suddenly on a sidewalk walking directly behind someone?

Ok, so I just wanted to be able to use the word Shenanigans in a blog title. But in all seriousness, I’m sure some of you have noticed the smorgasbord of different themes, and designs I’ve been going through lately on this site. I think I’m honing in on something I like, and that’s easily changeable. For now, ignore the pretty raspberry bushes and other nature images that scroll through the header image…still working on creating something for up there, but I like the layout of this design.
It’ll probably change in a month. I’m super ADD, with pretty much anything

This goes out to my good friend Dani. My initial reaction to this suggestion was “WTF?!” And then, like I do, I started rolling it around in my head, and what I could blog started unraveling before me like the Sistine Chapel did for Michelangelo.
To quote the request:
“The paradigm of single v. two-ply toilet paper and how that relates to eco-friendly v. narcissistic behavior.”
As you can see, my initial “WTF” reaction was warranted. But, let’s break this down.
Johnny goes to the store because he’s out of toilet paper. Upon arriving in the designated isle, he’s faced with a

I’m in one of those “FML” type moods. Where I just feel like everything is going wrong in my life, and there’s not going to be anything I can do about it today, so why care? Needless to say, I’m the worlds most cynical asshole today. So I decided: “Why not write a blog about it?”
I posted a Facebook status earlier. It said this:
Michael Gray Barclay is thinking about pulling a Fight Club. Blowing up all of the major credit card corporations, and setting us all back to zero. Either that, or just trying to figure out a way to

I’m so tired of being used by women. I’m not talking about women who only seem to want me for my body (although that’s happened…once). I’m talking about women who use me for my MIND.
Truth be told, I’m a kind, understanding, patient man who is willing to actually willing to listen to women and hear them and their problems. They come to me hoping to feel better by talking to me, and that’s what I do—I make them feel better.
They tell me their problems, they describe what’s going on, they ask for advice, and I give them

So, I work on phones all day long, calling people who already have trading accounts. Some people still treat me like I’m a telemarketer, but yesterday I encountered one of the funniest ways to avoid talking to me.
Me: (Dials number)
Ring.
Ring.
Ring.
“Hi, this is John. I’m not available at the moment, so please leave your name, number, and a message after the beep.”
Then he made a “beep” noise with his mouth, and hung up.
Lol.
Veeeerrrry, clever.
Ok, so this made me laugh hysterically. I found this on the Salt Lake City Craigslist Rants and Raves.
I want to do this…LOL.
Scene:
A snotty little girl is tugging at her mother’s hand–they are standing near me next to the dairy section at Walmart. The girl is obviously a little brat, and the mother is too tired to deal with her antics.
Little girl: “You’re not my mommy! You’re not my mommy!”
Mom: “Stop it.”
Little girl: “You’re not my mommy!”
Mom: “Cut it out.”
Little girl: “You’re not my mommy! You’re not my mommy!”
Mom: *facepalm*
Me: “Well do you want to come with me instead, little

Hello again my faithful friends.
I popped open my Google Analytics today, and saw that within the past three days, I’ve gone from 9 views, to 30 views per day! So that’s gotta be saying something. Now, if we can just get people to start interacting on the blog when they read it, I’ll be happy.
Man I’m all over the place today. I keep having ideas and typing them out, only to go back over them and find out that I basically put four thoughts into one blurb. Awesome.
So, today’s topics come from a couple friends.
Number one, and probably the funniest:
“Rich

So I figured that in order to make my day a little bit more interesting, I’d start a blog now (9:00 a.m.) and finish it by the end of my day at work (5:00). I suppose to make this more of a full day I should have started by 8, but, I didn’t. So there’s really not much I can do about it.
Last night I dove head first into a quest for new music. I do that from time to time. Essentially I get bored with my current 60 GB of music, and search for new artists. So far, I
