A Renewed Introduction

Three months ago a friend of mine sent me a link to the Hillsdale Collegian about my old college house, The Beat.

One week ago, while playing jazz for a wine club, I was informed by the owner that she finally was able to spell my name after searching for it online and being directed to a short blog post about only writing happily while drunk.

Two and two together later, I found the old link, and after a few Gmail searches, found all the old passwords. I had had no idea this blog still existed - some seventy-odd posts still exist (now all drafts), most of them categorical examples of why single, bitter, shy, and prolific shouldn't exist in the same body.

I've left my last post standing, and I'll filter out the less bitter posts and bring them back. Three to four years later, I've a wife, a child, a good deal more debt, and a good deal less bitterness. And, now that my wife has a new job which places me more in the position of homemaker than provider, I've more time to write the four years of entertaining stories I've collected.

Enjoy!
