So, what makes this update special? I suppose it's because it's been a while since I've updated y'all.
If you've watched the news, there has been a lot of trouble in my neck of the woods with precipitation. Or more to the point, too much rainfall. There is unbelievably sad news of the loss of over 80 lives due to flash flooding. The vitriol in the political world is somewhere I ain't going if I don't have to.
Luckily, all of that happened a bit further north than my neck of the woods. However, the news people tend to forget that this ain't even the first time for this to happen in the last damn month! About three weeks earlier, there was another set of hard rain clouds that decided to relieve themselves a wee bit closer to my neck of the woods. The news is forgetting, but that might be because there were only 11 lives lost on that particular late night and early morning.
Now that one was definitely closer to my neck of the woods. I'm talking reasonable walking distance from my neck of the woods. Luckily, me and mine got away from all of that with only a water-logged lawn. It was needed, but that's neither here nor there.
So I've been dealing with that, and while it ain't an excuse, it's just something I've been dealing with and have not been focusing on the next chapter all that much, I do admit. I'd write a few paragraphs, thoroughly flog myself with a wet noodle, then erase it all and then screw it and watch something on the boob tube. I have'nt even been in the mood for the MILF porn. I still searched for it, I mean, I'm not going to let my feelings get in the way of my true calling, would you?
So, what does that mean?
Well, I'm nearly there, and the crisis o'shitty writing is pretty much over. I think. I've been keeping more than usual lately. So I take that as a positive.
Just wanted to send some words, and I hope you and yours in your neck of the woods stay safe.
