Hello Stranger....

I'll admit it. My decision to stop writing last year was a very determined break from the blog. I had grown to hate this little corner of the internet... actually, looking back, hate might not be a strong enough word. Let's roll with loathe.

I turned my back on this blog last year and never thought I'd come back to it... but a few weeks ago I pulled it back up and took a look around.

I stopped writing for a lot of reasons -- but at the top of the list was the fact that -- honestly, my life was a massively horrendous pile o' shit for the last couple of years I documented here -- and who wants to hash through that TWICE?! I couldn't write about what was happening because just living through it was almost more than I could bear. Documenting it just seemed like beating a dead horse -- useless.

A LOT has happened since the last post and the day I came back.... so much, new job, new home, new friends... new life. So I've been thinking, maybe it's time to dust of the blog and start writing again. Not that I think anyone who listened before will find the new entries... but because it was good therapy for me. Because it helped. Because... you can't just take the good and leave the bad behind, especially when the bad helped you grow in the end.

So... I'm back. Not erasing the past -- just archiving it and looking forward. New Chapter? Hell -- it feels like a new book... and, I've so many tales left to tell.
