Well, I’ve taken a whole damn month off from actually posting an update which is quite sad. I guess I was discouraging myself from updating when I would launch into my rambling two page posts. I’ll just try and stick to the basics and update more regularly. Many things have happened since I’ve posted…I’ve done many signings with some strange ass people(I even did a signing for Jon Vogt…the dentist, I’m assuming) and attended the company 25th anniversary Christmas party which resulted in way too much amaretto and a big slab of fat with a little bit of beef inside. In keeping up with my newly formed love of the gym, I’ve switched to dead weights which has been a shock to the system. I’ve noticed some progress, so I suppose that’s good and healthy, but the endorphins is really what it’s all about. Oh yes, and I was almost in a huge car accident this past week. It happened that the truck in the left lane next to mine lost its tire and spun out missing my car by maybe a foot. Had I been a fraction of a second slower I would have probably been crushed into the divider. The fella behind me wasn’t so lucky, but he seemed to be o.k. as he slowed down a bit…he wasn’t tailgating or anything. Needless to say, I was as jumpy as a cat all day long. Near scrapes with death really force you to examine your life and show how close you really are to ceasing to exist on this plane of existence. Luckily, that dead weight of a feeling disappears after a while…I mean, how could you enjoy life with that hanging over your head all the time? Well, that’s enough for now, but I’m going to try and post tomorrow as well and stop being a lazy bastard.
