I used to be funny.
Ask anyone who knows me and they’ll tell you.  I was funny.  I may have been crude and abrasive, but damn it, I was funny.
I hate coming to this blog right now because the last post is always “OH! HI!  Let me tell you about my health!” and I think “you [...]

I decided recently that if I don’t have anything blog worthy, I’m just not going to blog*.
You don’t need an explanation from me or an apology post. No guest bloggers need to fill the gaping hole that is surely left in your day.

*OR: The post that makes my step mom wish she hadn’t given this blog URL to everyone in my dad’s office. Heh. (Hi, Tina! Sorry, Dad!)
