she lives and breathes

Yes, folks, it’s true – I am still alive. I had to put Miss Right Now on hiatus for a minute while I tried to claw my way out from a mountain of work at my job (I’m sort of succeeding) and dealt with some personal and professional business. However, as I was adamantly reminded last week in the midst of a Halloween party (I was Jem), people actually read this shit, and Lord knows disappearing for weeks on end is no way to treat a burgeoning rabid fan base. Besides, a lot has happened in the past few weeks that I’m sure you’re all dying to hear about.

I hate the phrase “turning over a new leaf,” because it’s a cliche, and as a writer I’m contractually obligated to hate all cliches, so I guess I would be more apt to say that in the past few weeks, I’ve tried to take on a new outlook on life. I’m trying to be more open, positive, carefree and confident, and less negative, afraid and frustrated. I’m trying to worry less, and enjoy more. I’m focusing on myself, not on finding a partner, while I work on healing my wounds and improving myself, so that when Mr. Right comes along, I’ll be ready for him, while making the most of all the good things I currently have in my life.

So, yeah, there’s that.

So come along on the journey, boys and girls, and be entertained by this and other stories including:
