It was an ordinary day. Looking back over a few stories I had written in the past and found out I have been writing and posting stories for a bit longer than I had thought I had. I know that I tend to make my stories longer than necessary from time to time, but I just get into the story and before long I have added perhaps an extra sentence or two which probably didn't add any thing more to my story than to the length of the size of it. As I sat typing a story this past week, I asked my dear wife, who happened to be on her computer while sitting next to me, if she could check and see when I first began to post stories on "Extraordinary Stories from an Ordinary Guy." A few seconds later she said I began posting stories on September 2, 2009. The story was titled "The White Rats" and it had to do with my Grandpap taking me to nearby Roots Sale and biding on a cardboard box of white rats for me to take home to my house on North Queen Street. After checking how many stories I had posted she told me it was 5,131! No way was that possible! So I checked myself and sure enough, she was correct, as she always is! It's been fun writing stories for this blog site and I hope I have become a better writer and story-teller than when I first began. My 11th grade English teacher, Mrs. Eisenhart, would be extremely proud of me, I'm sure! I know from time to time I forget a day or two, but not often. And...as long as someone will read my stories, I will continue to post them. If you ever have any suggestions, please send them to me as a comment at the end of a story, and I'll try and write something about your topic. It's been a fun 14 years of writing for me and as long as my fingers can travel over the keyboard and my mind continues to operate, I'll continue to write. Yours Truly, LDub. It was another extraordinary day in the life of an ordinary guy.
