I've just been over to the TFW website, visiting one last time before Yahoo takes it down. I read a few of the things i wrote. No false modesty, it was good. Witty, funny, you know, good. I don't write like that any more.
It's too bad, really. I miss writing amusing, entertaining things that might edify or at least entertain others. Unfortunately time marches on. Things change. And i don't write. It has been five months since i posted anything here and i still haven't done the 2009 year in review. It'll happen, i just don't know when.
So what happened. Shit happened, no not that. Life happened. Since i left thomas and Hardy i have been very busy. The new office consumes a lot of my time. Additionally i have taken on some additional responsibilities. I try to take running the Bar Association seriously, and i have more responsibilities to the Trust. Additionally i've had more on my plate since Erin moved in, you know doing couple things.
I wish i had time to write, but not enough to sit down and do it. Writers write. I used to do that. Now i do other things. I mentor, i run an office, i perform board duties, i try to be a good boyfriend, i play Bioshock, i play Reach, occasionally i play Magic, and i read. I also do my job and it takes up a lot of time. I wish i had time to write, but i'd have to stop doing something else and these other things are all more important right now.
Things change. Change is bad. I miss writing. I miss Cotton Candy Milk Mix. I miss Corner Gas. I miss a lot of things. But right now i don't think my life is changing, it is progressing. Progress is what you call change for the better.
I have more responsibilities than i ever had before. I find that i like that sort of thing and handle it well. I am working on getting things in place for 2016. That seems to be going well. I have more respect than i ever had while standing in brad's shadow, which turned out to be slimier than i thought. So while i don't have time to write, i am satisfied with my life's trajectory right now.
This is not the most entertaining thing i have ever written. Really this is just an attempt to get a little of the rust knocked off. I hope to write more in the near future. Or it may be five months before i post anything again. In any event, i have written this. While it is not my best work it is something. If you come across this, please read some of the old stuff as i am quite proud of much of it and wrote it intending that others be entertained.
Later

Yeah, things change. Gkar - Things fall apart, the center cannot hold...
ReplyDeletein good and in bad ways.
