I'm back.

Hey folks, sorry it's been a while. I've just been going through some life stuff. When I started this blog, I had just lost my job and was supercharged by the blind panic to find another one. And when I finally found one, it's turned out to be so boring and mind-melting that it has turned my brain completely off. It is as if I simply cannot write unless I'm backed into a corner. Necessity is the mother of invention, they say, and I guess you get pretty creative when you don't know where your next meal is coming from. 

I know a lot of people my age find themselves in my position. Maybe you've fallen back to square one and you have to start again. Maybe you know you want to do something truly, profoundly important, but you just don't know how to get there. Maybe you're ramming your head against a brutal catch 22 where you're forced to choose between following your dreams and paying your bills. Maybe it's all of the above and then some. I know I don't have it especially worse than anyone out there (I'm looking at you, Nigeria), but I know I'm not the only one. And that's what is truly awesome about today. We are all here for eachother. We can help one another power through those shitty spots in life that bog us down, like trying to drive a snowmobile uphill through a cascade of feces. We can offer up words of encouragement- no matter how token, because even a perfunctory pat on the back can be all a person needs to survive the day. 

I apologize if this isn't what you've come to expect from me or this blog, if this issue isn't chock full o' pop culture references and poop jokes, but its something I've needed to get off my chest. Its what my muse is grabbing me by the back of the head and slamming my face into, full force, so I'm compelled to write it in it's entirety.
