Just discovered that a magazine feature I was assigned has a quicker turnaround time than expected — July 5. So if you came here looking for updates you are shit out of luck. Look, people, I announced here months ago that I was willing to take on guest bloggers but did any of you bite at the bait? Hell, no. The offer still stands. Hone your writing skills once or twice a week and be seen and read by 700-900 unique visitors daily. Drop me a line if you’re interested.
In the meantime, my lovely ex, Josephine Gillis, has taken a pause from her summer vacation to update 10086 Sunset Boulevard:
“What’s blocking you from writing about what’s going on? You should feel proud of yourself.”
“Oh, I do, but it’s still in the early stages. My life is nice right now and no one wants to read about nice. I’m feeling healthy and enjoying myself day to day. Who’s interested in that? People want conflict, they want a voyeuristic experience.”
“So give it to them.”
“There’s no conflict in my life right now. Nothing I am doing, at this stage of the game, has any bite to it – not like the stuff I wrote before, when my life resembled a soap opera. Now that that whole mess is behind me, I just don’t feel angry. I’ve lost that “pissed off” edge.”
Memo to Josephine: I don’t think you’ll ever lose that “pissed off edge.”

Ahem.
We considered you momentarily at the board meeting, David. Momentarily. And then we laughed until we pissed all over ourselves. Then we had lunch.
Hmmm.

Huh. I guess revealing the narrator is a new blogging philosophy, as well as a post…? Interesting….
There was no reason to keep that cat in the bag any longer, David.
I missed the kitty in the sack?
You’re not the only one who can make salaciously irrelevant comments.
All I know is that is the poster you used to accompany this post is just the best ever! Oh but it makes laugh out loud!
What I missed in reading Josephine’s posting is the method used to “get the whole mess behind me.” Broom, mop, shovel … a bulldozer, perhaps?
There’s a great old quote, I wish I could remember who said it, but it goes something like this: When you let sleeping dogs lie, pretty soon you’re stumbling over all the dogs in the room.
There’s another saying: When you sleep with all the dogs you end up with fleas.
