Because I am not as funny as I think I am, apparently

In consultation with my blogging advisors, I’ve decided it might be helpful to label my posts “serious post” or “fun post;” other classifications might be added as needed. Of course there are often fun aspects to serious topics and serious aspects to fun topics, or serious or fun ways of looking at serious or fun topics or their serious or fun aspects, and I often appreciate humor as a way to break the solemness or sentimentality of most topics, but, I hope you get my point. If this doesn’t work, I will probably need to resort to some smiley faces or something. Though I pledge now to try to avoid too many “lol’s.”
