Finally! Gawd, how I’ve missed this!
And I’m still gobsmacked. I still can’t believe how many people have stopped by even though I haven’t written anything in two months. Thanks to everyone who took the time to check in.
Yes, it really has taken me this long to get back online (the ex-wife got custody of the computer) and damn! it feels so good to by typing away again.
I really want to thank everyone who wrote to me and left comments in the last few months. People I have only met through this medium took the time to offer friendship and support during a really shitty period in my life, and to them I will always be grateful.
But there is one person in particular I feel the need to mention individually, my friend Spas. Odd, in a way, to call someone you’ve never met a friend, but what else CAN you call someone who took the time to make my problems her problems, who cared enough to send encouraging words even when I was too depressed to respond? She is a genuinely good and caring person, and I can only hope I have the good fortune to meet her in person someday. And by the way, she is one hell of a writer.
Oh, and before I forget, I also have to mention the one friend I have in the blogging community that I also have the pleasure to know personally, my friend and co-worker Michael Murphy. Without going into great detail here, let’s just say that Mike never let me feel sorry for myself, and applied the tough love when it was most needed.
He also supplied me with hookers.
It’s been way to long since I’ve inflicted my opinions on the world, way too long since I’ve pissed anyone off (although I think I’ve just fixed that.)
I’m back! Ready or not, here I come.
Oh, and just kidding about the hookers.
