Hey. It's Me.

I'm still alive.

Will I ever get to
To where it is that I am going?

For about 9 weeks it felt like I would not. But I arrived home in time to send my kids back to school. Ahh.

I take a look around
It's evident the scene has changed.

Unfortunately, my computer is what changed. Dead as a door nail (what is a doornail, and is it one or two words?). DOA. Luckily, after a scare, I found out my hard drive was alive and I recovered lots of good stuff. Mostly to do with writing - folks BACK your sh!t up. Often.

And, yes, it seems I'm going nowhere
Really fuckin' fast, nowhere fast

I had to make do with the laptop from somewhere around the Paleozoic Era. The same lovely thing I had to accompany me on my trip. After a few weeks of 2-3 minute page-load times, I had given up the blog, so starting it up again was not an option until I had something I could work with.

If the wind blew me in the right direction, yeah
Would I even care? I would, I would, I would

Alas, after piecing together my leftovers with two other towers friends gave me, I have something usable. Phew.

I guess it's possible
That I have been a bit distracted

Sure, that has been part of the absence, too. For most of the summer ROULETTE suffered greatly. However, in the past month, I have edited 5 Really Important Chapters. Go me. I have two more to go. Then I have decided the beginning needs to be revised in a big way. A big Stake Raising way. It's okay. Better to realize it now, than after I'd sent it out, right?

I will do my best to put some focus here, but it's likely I will be around only once or twice a week. I missed my bloggy friends, though! Oh, and grr. I had to turn my word ver back on due to the ridiculous amount of spam coming to my mailbox. Sorry!

Did anyone else have a major writing drought over the _seriously hot_ summer?
