On a shoddy excuse

It’s not that I have a dearth of things to write about. In fact, my last few days have been pretty eventful between band bitch-fights, awkward flirtation, things being set on fire and other bizarre little events.

On the downside of being self-employed

I’m tired now. I spent all day working on a project because it was interesting to me. I got quite a bit of work done on it, too. Unfortunately, this was to the detriment of other projects which are not quite as interesting to me but which are much more pressing. It annoys me that [...]
