I'm Back?

I'm actually starting to feel creative again.

You guys.

I feel creative.

CREATIVE!

Miraculous, really. I thought the muses had abandoned me forever.

Maybe they were just mad about my excessive gaming.

Or the fact that I watch shows on netflix that I hate just because I can't stop without finishing every available episode.

Or the depressing reality that I am still reading The Iliad.

(Seriously. It is so slow. Get to the good stuff, Homer.)

((On the bright side, I have fewer than a hundred pages left and I think I'm going to make it into a wine-fueled drinking game tomorrow just to get me through it.))

(((There are just so many unnecessary details. I don't really need to remember them all.)))

Anyway, because I like to pretend that there are some people who actually enjoy reading the things that I write, and because in that grand delusion I also tell myself that those people are probably sad when I don't write at all, I would like to promise you imaginary people that there are good things coming.

I have a great idea for a post that will (hopefully) happen soon, (might) be funny, and (with any luck) might actually contain the same number of points that I say it will.

I'm also writing a short story that somebody might like to read. You know, wishful thinking.

And I'm going to try and keep this shit up in the future.

Like, not forget that I have a blog all the time and stuff like that.

And maybe write some things on a semi-regular basis.

Because I'm a fucking writer.

And that's what writers do.

Wish me luck with the Iliad.

(Please. Seriously. Wish me luck.)

Maybe the next time we chat I'll have actually finished it.
