In Case You Weren't Wondering

Hey Fellas,

It's been a while.

For those of you who worry about me, don't. Because...just don't. I'm fine. Really, I'm great.

Now that I got that out of the way. Some of you have been asking me in person and via email why I haven't written in a while. First of all, thank you, it feels great to be wanted and appreciated. Second, I've been very busy and my life has taken a dramatic turn for the good which keeps me busy with work and other projects. The time spent away from here has also given me a new appreciation for the written word and has also made me realize my poor writing skills. But before you start with all the "oh c'mon! you're a great writer, blah blah blah, let me give you a hug..." I'd like to tell you that it hasn't stopped me from writing, instead it just made me work harder to improve my writing as you can plainly see here. My vocabulary has improved, and my writing process more thought out and deliberate. I blame it on consuming mass amounts of works by Etgar Keret, David Sedaris, Shalom Auslander, and Joel Stein.

What I'd like to say is....

Hold on! I don't like to say "what I'd like to say." That phrase annoys me, the people who use it annoy me. If you'd like to say something, say it. There is absolutely no need to inform me before saying what you'd like to say, that you'd like to say it. Once you have said what you'd like to say, I automatically assume that that is what you liked to say.

Now here's what I'd like to say...

Ugh! Fuck it!

Alright. Alright. I have been working on some pieces for a while. I have a real full-time job which doesn't leave me much time to write the way I want to. But I promise I will finish them and post them soon.

Until then, take care of yourselves, take care of those in your families who love you unconditionally, do something sexy, and dress like you have something to say.

P.S. Nah, forget it. It's fine the way it is. I can always edit it later.
