I have exciting news.
I am on my way to fame.
I have started a blog, and its simultaneous profundity, hilarity, and down-to-earthity is going to catch quite unlike me with a football, and I'm going to become famous. And famous means loved by many, right? Sounds good to me.
My list of people this "blog-fame" has happened to:
The Pioneer Woman
Man Repeller

...

As this extensive and exhaustive list shows, extreme blog fame is not difficult to achieve. And now I am well on my way!
I don't struggle with making myself write—no!
I'm never going to miss a post, or a whole month of posts—why would I?

Oh my.
I just reached my first blogging difficulty. And it's not the inevitable answers to those questions, I'll cross that bridge when my supra-clad feet arrive there. My current difficulty is: How do I type out sounds that aren't words? Right now I'm looking for a "hurumph." Any suggestions? If the destination is in the journey, maybe I should try a few more spellings:
Humph.
Harumph.
Humff.

Ew. 
You all (my many, many readers) should know that "ew" is one of my favorite words to use while writing. It actually doesn't bother me ("actually". . . I'll talk about that one in a second.), and it generally expresses what I want it to very well. 
- Actually
- Ah
- AHHH!
- oooo (pronounced like ooo ahhh not like ohhhh)
Those are a few other favorites I'm sure you'll see in here every now and then. Actually is my adverb-verbal pause of choice, which I use as opposed to the more popular "literally." I'm unique like that.

Does adding a line break indicate a shift in topic for a blog post? Hm. Let's take a vote. Go to surveyallthepeople.swag.com and click on "Charlie Lovelace Survey." It caps at 1000 submissions, so I'm afraid you'll only be able to take it if you see this post in the next half hour or so. But each one of you is special and your opinions matter to me, even if you don't get to express them in this survey. Sorry, but it's hard for me to be so popular sometimes.
Annnnnd that whole last paragraph was a lie.
It's a pretty good example of one side of my humor, I think. But if you didn't laugh, that's okay! First of all, I don't even think it would be funny to other people. But I though it was funny, so there it is. And second of all, I have other aspects of my humor. Really, really fun aspects. So stay tuned. You'll have a six pack by the end of the year. 
But for now, welcome to the blog. You are one of the few elite who will be able to say that a you followed me from my very first post when I'm on the Tonight Show or Ellen next month. (Or, but probably both.) 
Like me with Taylor Swift. (Hi! I've been a fan since Fearless!)
Welcome. 
And if this is my only post ever, at least it was....at least it was. At least one time, I posted on a blog.

love, charlie
(don't worry! it's just me, Madeline!)
