Welcome to my rambles.  They tend to happen sporadically! I don't actually suffer that badly from sleep deprivation but at the creation of this blog, I happened to be going through one such phase.  It happens, sometimes.

I'm French-Canadian (but not from Québec), walking the Earth (this translates to "I'm not working").  I've lived in northern Ontario, Sacramento (California) and I love showing off the shoes I wore when I traveled to Trondheim, Norway.  I have my own problems, just like anyone else, but I really don't like sharing them with strangers.  Surprise!

(Okay, maybe sometimes I'll forget I said that and indulge a little tiny bit, but most likely in a minimum detail way.  I like dramatic movies, so I might rant about drama on rare occasions.  I hope.)

So, what's up with Teasaur, Voctory and Doom? This is the interesting part.

I am very bad at figuring out titles.  I love to write, mostly for my own enjoyment, but when it comes to picking titles for stuff, I absolutely fail at it.  In addition, when I get tired, I get severely dumbed down.  So on this day of the birth of my blog, I was faced with the dilemma of choosing a title for it.

I was not mentally prepared for this challenge, what with the onslaught of sleep deprivation.

After some careful consideration, I decided to do what any normal person would do: I asked advice from a friend.  This friend of mine is European, intelligent, funny, charming and really quite brilliant.

However, the first two suggestions ("Death to America!" and "Death to all fanatics!") didn't seem to convey the theme I wanted.

The two of us had been awake for too long, really.  So eventually, our title-choosing conversation drifted towards words that we frequently use when speaking with each other.  And that's how Teasaur, Voctory and Doom came to be.

Teasaur is new.  At first I thought he'd made it up from the word "thesaurus," since I mentioned looking one up for a synonym of the word "domain."  But I was wrong! Teasaur is a play on the words "dinosaur" and "teaser."  I give full credit to my European friend for creating it.

Voctory is a typo of "victory."  We use it often enough when we feel like cheering and being "voctorious."

Doom has many meanings.  We use it as a reference for smoking, incoming badness, that kind of stuff.  Doom is also my blog's mascot.

I'll eventually figure out how to make some sort of banner or something, but yeah.  There's this blog's mascot.

The purpose of my blog is vague, but something along the lines of storytelling.  Maybe about me, maybe about other things or people I know.  I love writing for the simple purpose of my own enjoyment and my blog will hopefully demonstrate that.

Or I could just complain about the next horrible movie I've seen.

Welcome to Teasaur, Voctory and Doom! Enjoy your stay.  If you don't, well...navigate away from here.

Edit:  Yes, I realize that Doom is a pre-existing character from a Norwegian kids' television show.  I still renamed him and made him my mascot, anyway.
