This Is Going to Be the Preface to My Book Revision-(Kind of Self-Explaining Title)


I wrote a book called If That’s Your Real Name. Don’t go out and buy it. It sucks. I wrote a
couple of short stories I thought were good at the time, and looking back…they aren’t at all. I was writing to say I did something, and to try and climb out a massive life engulfing pit I’ve been in. It’s a horrible, horrible read. Somehow this book is supposed to be better than that one, but let’s be honest, I’m reprinting those little gems out of that book in this one so that you can see for yourself, what I’m talking about. I thought it might make a good monument to lousy writing.
    And I think it this maybe the book that I’ve wanted to write. Oh sure, its got some of my less
than great writings in it, but its me on paper. And that’s what I want to do, leave a message that covers
everything I can think, touch on everything I care about, and squeeze as much out of everything, say
the things that don’t get said, or that are overlooked. Quite the run-on sentence. So. Hopefully you can see if I got any better and hopefully I can see the royalty check.

I Have No New Year's Resolutions

I have prided myself on the fact that I have absolutely no New Year's resolutions.  That's right, I just maintain that same level of excellence year in, and year out... Actually I just have never found the point in trying to do some cliche thing like trying to diet, or run a marathon or something.  If you're not going to make some kind of effort even before a new year starts, the impact of a  new year starting ain't going to matter more than maybe a month.  I'm looking to redo my book, which while I thought I had it edited ended up being pretty crappy.  So I'm trying to do something about now, and have been for a little while trying to "fix" it.  Why wait till 2012 when 2011 isn't over?  Of course 2011 only has one week left in it...

It's Christmas

Bah humbug.  Apparently I'm in the mood for writing, as I started work on one of my projects for my book revision.  I really can't say too much right noe, but its likely after women read it, I'm not going to be well liked by women for a while.

Wow

I'm at the point where, I'm not sure I care too much today. Nope, nope, nope, just tired of life today.  I tried to be a little productive, but just haven't been getting a lot done.  I am unmotivated today.  And on top of that the complete stupidity of the trade/non-trade involving Chris Paul to the Lakers was a complete fiasco.  Don't know what to say I am in a funk of all funks... I am really looking forward to a new year, with new things, new projects, that I'm trying to get excited about.  Maybe its just the cold weather thats making me grumpy.

2012

I'm thinking next year may be the biggest of my life.  I've got some projects, that should get finished, and I'm hoping to try and go back to school, and get a master's degree too.  Also a girlfriend would be nice too...
