Hello Blogosphere

Hi! For those of you who don't know me, I am Chris Sorenson. I am a realtor here in Madison, WI and I am new to the world of blogging. It has always seemed strange to me to share things about myself to people who aren't in vocal communication with me either face to face or on the phone. I mean, I have never really visited blogs but, to me, the whole thing has seemed self-centered and attention-seeking. Most of these thoughts, I assume, stem from my being the least introspective person that I know. It used to drive my wife, Jamie, absolutely nuts.

Jamie: "How did you feel about that movie?"
Me: "Ummm...I don't know. My popcorn was absolutely delicious, though."
Jamie: "Well, what thoughts were going through your head when the little girl was crying when her daddy left for the war?"
Me: "I think it was about then that I noticed the popcorn had left a nice buttery film on my lips so I was pretty wrapped up in that."
Jamie (dejectedly): "I should have married a woman."

Jamie has grown accustomed to me over the years and I now try to share my feelings on things with her (even if I have to make them up).

So if you need a lighter spot in the blogosphere, I hope this blog will fill some of that need. I'll share stories of things I have done or experienced, share some of the "goings on" in the real estate market, and leave the lame, "I'm currently eating mashed potatoes!" status updates to the folks on Twitter.

I'll wrap it up here with a request for your referrals: If you or anyone you know is looking to buy or sell real estate, I would love to help you/them out. We real estate agents make a lot of our living on the word of mouth from friends and family and if you are reading this blog, I consider you one or both.

Chris
