A Few Words...

A lot of you have given me shit lately (and rightfully so) for not posting a story in some time. By now you've come to understand that I'm much better at making excuses than I am at owning up to my own expectations, never mind all of yours.

Rest assured, a story on Egypt is in the works, and from there I have to walk everyone through Dubai, Tanzania (including Zanzibar), Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland, Namibia, Botswana, and Victoria Falls. I can do it, trust me.

But I'd like to quickly call your attention to the following reasons I have yet to post an entry since returning to the states five weeks ago:

- I've been homeless
- I've been motherfucking working (!!!!)
- I've been reassimilating to life back in the developed world
- I've been approaching depression due to the above
- I suck.

If you could follow that convoluted laundry list of confusing insights into how cluttered my brain/life is these days, then my hat's off to you. Additionally, if you've got an itch to read any of my exploits over the aforementioned 13-14 months of travel, then I present you with a choice: A) visit the archives, B) take my place at work, or C) tag me as spam for making too many unnecessary lists. And then suck it.

Finally, I'll offer you a teaser: the Egypt story is one that includes an intense friendship, an awkward breakup, a hash binge, and one of the Seven Most Disappointing Wonders of the World. Methinks you'll find the wait well worth it. And methinks you love the word "methinks" more every time I use it...

Recognize.
