Reality in a box

Once upon a time in a magical land called Sam, (What do you mean that's a weird name for a place, that's his name. Deal with it. Yes the land is a he.) there was a box. Of course it wasn't just a box, there were people and cows and hills and I said it was magical so there were probably some faeries and stuff too. But that doesn't matter. What matters is that box I was mentioning. As you may have gathered from both the title of the post and the title of this blog, this box contained reality. And by reality I mean everything that you see and feel and touch. And smell and taste too. Everything that we know there is, and everything that science says there is, even if they aren't exactly sure it's really real exists inside the box. And everything else exists outside the box. With me so far? I sure hope so because I haven't even started explaining the fun part. The box is only about one foot across on the outside. On the inside it's infinite. Which is a good thing because reality has trouble existing in a finite space. Now the box isn't really real it's just sort of a metaphor, and the point I'm trying to make has something to do with everything we know being a little box and everything we can imagine being the world outside the box. Anyone who thinks I'm building up to saying think outside the box is going to be sorely disappointed. I'm actually not sure what I'm building up to. But this is a blog. I don't have to do it right now. The box will return.

Right now you're reading a blog called Reality in a Box which is about me and stuff. Stuff that I like, creative stuff that I'm doing and just cool junk and stuff. I like the word stuff. It's a place for me to just spew my ideas across the Internet like a guy who can't hold his vodka spews what he had for supper all over the sidewalk. Sorry for the imagery, it's just what happens when you use the word 'spew'. It's also my place to call attention to stuff that's awesome. So hang on tight, it's going to be a bumpy ride. I promise not to say spew again too.
