And there was much rejoicing.

Okay, as you might have noticed, I’ve fallen off the face of the earth recently.

Life shat on me for a few months in a row, and I kept thinking as each individual incident was knocked out of the way, that it would all be over and things would be back to normal any second now.

Every time this happened some new thing would come along and shit on me.

This continued for a few months. I’d always get a long enough lull to convince myself and others that I wasn’t going to have to pare down, give up on anything, or accept getting shat on by life as the new natural order of things and compensate accordingly. It was an extremely long-running streak of bad luck, probably induced by using up all my good luck in a) my mom not being dead, b) getting regularly laid.

I don’t like to air my dirty laundry in public so I played down, shut up, and tried not to explain much even in private. It would all sound like excuses. On the other hand it (late Sugasms, lack of responding to emails, lack of blog posts which you all know isn’t like me) wasn’t happening for no reason. The reasons were personal, familial, health-related, and financial, topped off with a recent slice of techical difficulties, and they were severe, and they were multiple, but nobody’s dead and I’m not writing this from the library closest to the homeless shelter, so nobody worry.

I like to think it’s over now but after being fooled so many times I can’t be sure. What I can be sure of is that I’ve now got backup on the Sugasm so no matter what stupidity occurrs in my own life you guys aren’t having to deal with it. That was bothering me more than you know. We’re talking guilt-ridden angst and everything.

There are some cool projects of my own I’d like to launch soon. I’ll throw them out one at a time and see how that works.

Comments are disabled on this puppy because it’s a notification and an apology more than anything. I’m sorry for the delays. Thanks for being so patient and understanding; good stuff’s coming down the pipe. And double thanks to those of you who commented and emailed. Seriously - it meant a lot to me. You rock my sexy, stripey socks.

Smut and Sugasm tonight for ya. Probably late tonight, but I’ll do it before dawn. (Ooh.) I’ve got some drafts to roll out for you.

I’ll make it up to you, baby. I promise. I’ll change… I’ll be a better person for you!

Smooches.
