Holy Crap, Time Flies

So, here's the thing, three years later. Every aspiring writer is taught to follow two primary objectives: 1) brevity is clarity, and 2) just keep writing. I have masterfully failed at both those things, however I will atone for my sins here and now. (Fun fact, I chose the word "will" very carefully because, as that other favorite old chestnut goes, hope is not a strategy.)

Unsexy 2012 update: I'm now 45, and while most of the rest remains the same, I am now fully, gainfully, and miserably employed (more on that hateful situation another time). My un-startling epiphany that bloggers have changed the world turns out to be truer-than-true, good on me. And good on bloggers; you know, the ones who actually write with some level of consistency.

I still sort of follow WWTDD, but more so Filmdrunk, as it resonates in a smarter way to me now. And speaking of smarter, my most recent genuine joy is Nerdist.com, the @Nerdist himself, Chris Hardwick, and all things Nerdist adjacent, not the least of which is their newly launched YouTube channel, found conveniently at YouTube.com/Nerdist. I won't proselytize, just check it out, and I triple-dog dare you no to find something interesting/original/amusing.

If I'm able to keep to my word and write with any regularity and level of quality, I will continue to blog here. I will move over to my own website sometime in the future, when it makes better sense. I'd love to hear any suggestions you might have for a domain name.

In the meantime, rock on, and for fuck sake, be nice, will you? It matters.
