Dear fine readers, I have foresaken you and for it, my hits have dropped as low as my gut feeling for another Patriots superbowl championship this year. I won't say it is because I have writer's block or because I've been partying too hard or because I've got too much on my plate lately. I don't even really have a good excuse at all except that I just have too much to talk about. I can't filter. It's all in there and it all wants to come out and each item, each piece and parcel taken individually, it just seems so insignificant and.. well, pointless.
I
want to write about how it is completely ridiculous for someone to dump the coffee at an office at 3:30pm regardless of who is in the office just because that is when they do their rounds. It is pointless, though. It is pointless to talk about how even discussing this issue with said person is a hopeless battle, like trying to punch your way out of a paper bag in the dark (once you're out, you're still in the dark), because said person can justify their actions through the inactions of others - "nobody
else will clean up the mess" - when in fact you, yourself (that's me) have in the past always cleaned up said mess in the wake of none-3:30pm dumpage.
Truly pointless. I
want to talk about the frustration of five roommates who constantly post notes in the common areas for people to be aware of - common things such as keeping the sink clear of dirty dishes - yet the people
posting these notes are the ones who are truly responsible for dirty dishes left in the sink.
I
want to talk about the lack of quality television, the unending ability of americans to drive like complete assholes, the dilution of good pitching in the major league, and a host of other virile problems that I face almost every single day..
But it is pointless. Instead, you have gotten silence and for that I am 100% responsible. This, at least, I can own in full and blame no other. It's comforting, really, to be able to acquire, address, and attack a problem from the bottom up.
I am working now. I have no excuse (if I ever had one) to ignore this space. Hopefully, from now on, updates will be more rapid and forthcoming, provided my situation doesn't change.
