Life is starting not to suck so much. Maybe. If you didn’t already know my life pretty much fell apart about a week ago. I’m not really cool with going into the details here, but just understand it was bad. Really bad. And I did what I always try to do when life gets too tough, I crawled into a hole and tried to cease to exist. Which didn’t work especially since someone out there activated the bat signal and Safiye came to the rescue and is putting her husband on plane to come down and fix my shit… and pack my shit. Because I finally get to leave this hellhole. True, I am doing it with a helluva lot less pride than I came here with. But at least I’m leaving.

I will no longer be keeping this website active (surprise surprise). It just isn’t really me anymore. Not to mention that I don’t even live in a condo anymore and in less than 15 days I won’t even live in Hell.

But I have started a plurk account. Over the next 6 weeks I’m not going to be at a computer that often because the current travel plan involves 7 states, 4 events, and numerous friends willing to tolerate me sleeping on their couches and using all their hot water… not to mention almost 3300 miles of up close and personal time with just my new SUV to keep me company. So I needed to find a way that I could keep in touch (using my Blackberry) with everyone curious about tracking my route but something simple enough that I could do while driving. I suspect you will hear a lot from me over these next few weeks (via plurk) because 3300 miles is a lot of time with just you and your mind on an empty highway.

(there was going to be a mopey goodbye here but after spending the day talking to friends trying to get plans worked out I feel all loved and warm and gooey on the inside to be mopey)

Onto Plurkdom!!!
