And out from nothing comes something?

Hello world! It's me, Justin. Let me introduce myself in not-so many words which will let everyone who may happen upon this site form notions of who I am from deeply ingrained stereotypes.

I guess the name of my blog doesn't help those stereotypes, but shut up, rainbows are awesome!

So yeah, I am in fact gay, queer, homosexual, or whatever word you wanna use that isn't offensive. I'm also a scientist though--a physicist working on getting a PhD from the University of Maryland. I'm very strongly skeptical, a part of my scientific upbringing. I lived in Texas, have a rather conservative part of my family that is none too accepting but not the worst you've heard of, I'm sure (well, at least I tell myself that as I go to sleep at night). I'm an open book, and I will not be shy to post personal stories when I feel like it since my core philosophy is that nothing should ever be a secret.

So I realize that part of this will be talking into the aether, but I'm okay with that. I needed an outlet to post my random thoughts and feelings, so here I am.

So this is the third paragraph to being with 'so'. Yay. May the fun and mayhem of so-called 'blogging' begin.
