I’ll See You in January

The winter holidays approach, and there won’t be any new content on the site until January 9th… assuming I survive. If I don’t then you might wanna give me another week or two.

Broken

Just to get it off my chest, here’s a list of shit that has broken in the past two months:

1) The air conditioner.
2) My wife’s car
3) My wife’s computer
4) My wife’s phone
5) MY phone
6) The toilet!?!
7) My car.
8) My faith that this is a fair and just world.

Bitter? What do you think.

New Developments

Wow, has it been that long since I’ve posted anything here?

…Yup, it has. Looks like I did it again.

Storms Last Night

For those of you who know what part of the country I call home, we made it through last night’s weather unscathed. Things got seriously wrecked a few miles south of where I live, but it was mostly a non-issue around my neighborhood. There were only a few fatalities in Georgia (so far), but Alabama lost well over a hundred people.

It’s probably too soon for that joke about how the tornado knocked the wheels off of the governor’s mansion… maybe in a few days.

Not Dead Yet

It was brought to my attention that I seemed to have disappeared yet again. Sorry about that. I’ll make a longer post a bit later; I just wanted to let everybody know that I haven’t died or been kidnapped by aliens. Or both.

Here we go again

It looks like we’ll all be waiting a little while longer for the final pages of “In Deed”. I didn’t get nearly as much writing done over the long weekend as I had planned. As it turns out, I’m extremely glad I didn’t. My computer died on Sunday. And since what I had written so far hadn’t yet been transferred to backup, everything I had put down so far died with the computer. No problems, though… I just plugged in the backup computer, re-installed all my software and-

The last couple of weeks

It occurred to me that there might be people who don’t read the comments and thus missed my explanation of why there has been a lack of updates recently. My father had a stroke and I had to make an unexpected trip back home. That, combined with having to work for the last few weekends (including THIS weekend and NEXT weekend), didn’t leave a lot of time for writing. Since I only write on weekends these days, I don’t expect to have any writing down for the next week or two. I’m looking forward to getting back to writing; I just don’t have the time or temperament right now.

DAMNNN!

I lost another hard drive last night. It didn’t have anything vital (like writing), but it did have quite a few things that I really didn’t want to go without. Like my ENTIRE music collection.

Good thing I had it backed up.

Let’s plug in this other external hard drive that I have sitting around…

…the fuck!? NO! NOOOOOO!

Sometimes I swear… The universe may not hate me, but it is CLEARLY an asshole and thinks that I’m an asshole too.

Snowpocalypse II: The Second Coming!

“OH SWEET MOTHER OF JESUS, NOOOOOOO!”

Snowing again. Not sticking, but we’re preparing for immediate evacuation, not to mention the Rapture.

Snowpocalypse!

Four inches of snow in some parts of Atlanta last night.

Four inches.

Dear God, Why Hast Thou Forsaken Us?

Depending on where you live that may not sound like much, but the operative part of that first line was not “four inches” but “in Atlanta”. Not Philadelphia. Not New York. Not Fargo. Atlanta. Let me put this in perspective for you:
