((December 13th update... I wrote this a while ago. Rather than delete it, or change anything, or even finish it, I thought that I would publish it as is.))
Well, it's been a while since I posted something that wasn't part of a story that I am working on. I thought that maybe I have made you all wait long enough to read my inane ramblings. I'd ask you all how you've been, but to be honest I don't know how many of you people are even reading these things, much less be willing to answer a simple question. I think that it is somewhat juvenile of you all, but I'm a bit juvenile myself. So what did I learn from this entire experience? Nothing. Not a damn thing. And do you know something? That's alright. That's how we grow as people. Or something profound like that. Sometimes I think I type just to read myself think. And that's a bit sad.
So anyway, I haven't been up to all that much. School is in full swing, but the holiday's are fast approaching. It's hard to believe how fast the year has passed, and how quickly Thanksgiving will be here. It is now Sunday, and Thursday is just around the corner, kind of like the weekdays always work. It seems that they have developed a pattern. I know that it's crazy, but I guess it's sort of something that we have all become accustomed to.
Life is good, since you asked. Things aren't always iced-tea wishes, and salamander dreams, but overall we're doing pretty good. Christmas is coming, and though the songs say it's a time of happiness, and joy, I've found that over the years it's been more stress, and more stress. Still, we are trying. And in the end, I think the kids will have a good day. All six of them. Yeah, that's a lot of kids, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Living in a so-called "blended family" does come with it's own share of frustrations, but I wouldn't trade it for the world. I've learned a lot from this experience, and I'm so glad to finally be on the right path in life.
The writing on my book is coming along pretty good, though I haven't gotten as much done on it as I'd like. I'm trying to balance work, and the writing, and the music thing, all while remembering that none of that would be necessary without my family (both the old, and the new), and so that has to be the most important part. Plus, I genuinely do like spending time with my beautiful girlfriend, so I need to keep plenty of that in my schedule. And even still, I sometimes feel like there is not enough time in the day to spend with her. I've always said that we need longer days, people!
((And that was it. Just like that, I was done. I guess we'll never know what happened to me that day. And that is the scariest thought of all. -fin. ))
