Oh, hi. How long have you been standing there?
I hope you haven’t been waiting too long.
I really didn’t intend for my blog to be this starved for material after the A to Z challenge wound down, but I think my brain just went into “Holy shit, FREEDOM!” mode and decided to stop working according to any kind of logic.
Okay, to be fair my brain almost never operates according to any kind of logic, but this was an even more fractured lack of logic than usual.
As in 2 + 2 = hmm, I should buy limes to have with my beer. Am I eating too many avocados? I want to go for a bike ride but that means I have to fix my bike seat. Screw it, I’m taking pictures of everything in my apartment that I hate.*
Meanwhile I was somehow getting way better blog traffic in the weeks following the challenge than I actually did during the challenge, and that didn’t help matters because it was all too tempting to interpret that sudden surge in viewership as you guys thanking me for finally shutting the fuck up after my 26 day word barrage.
(If that was the case, you’re welcome. Don’t say I never did anything for you.)
I think I may be experiencing a little May mini-repeat of the March Blahs, which has not been helped by the fact that at work I keep accidentally writing “Mar” on things instead of “May”, which has also really not been helped by the fact that I am by no means the only one in the office who keeps making this mistake.
I fully expect the same thing to happen for Jun/Jul, but I won’t care then because I’ll be spending my weekends topless on Wreck Beach, and once you set yourself down on that piping hot, deliciously fine sand and let the girls out for a bit of summer sun, you kind of stop giving a fuck about all the dumb shit you did that week at your job.
Anyway, long story short my thoughts have finally started settling down enough for me to write semi-coherently again, so hopefully I will have a proper new post up soon. Possibly almost certainly inevitably complaining about something or several somethings.
Also, to whoever got here recently by searching “people nut in the gril ass hole”, I don’t even want to know.
*This may or may not turn out to be relevant to my next real blog post.
OK, regarding the search term, it was me. I fess up. Don’t judge me! Also, excuse my typo. I meant to write “asshole”, not “ass hole”. Those are two completely different things.

Well, thank goodness that mystery is solved! That space between the ass and the hole was going to keep me up all night.

She’s lying. It was me. I was in Jamaica where I’d been deserted by my friends and was trying to send a text that said “People not in Negril are assholes”, but I was on the beach and there was a party going on and I’d been handed this drink called The Living Dead. All I know is it was served in a foot tall glass, was bright blue, and tasted like strawberry Qwik. Long story short I woke up with my pants missing and my nipples pierced with those little cocktail umbrellas and thinking, well, there’s a week of my life I’ll never get back.

It happened to me too. After AtoZ Challenge, my mind nearly shut down.
Well, I’m trying to reopen business. Happy to see you’re doing it too 😉

Who’d have thought the hardest part would come after the challenge, eh?

Glad you’re back! 🙂 And yeah, I’ve been slowly getting into the saddle again… April was exhausting! Even with pacing myself this year! Have fun in the sun. 😉

It’s good to be back! Funny how I thought actually doing the A to Z would be the hard part…nope, breezed right through that, then hit a brick wall!

Haha, yeah, same. Maybe it has to do with being on a theme, and then suddenly being a free bird again. 😛

I think for me it was the deadlines. I’ve always worked best under pressure. No more deadlines = no more motivation!
