Kind of Like Flossing

At this point I feel like we can be pretty honest with each other: it's mad hard to keep a blog going if you're any brand of normal. Go a few days without posting, and suddenly you're swimming upstream just to make like Whoopi Goldberg in Sister Act 2 and get back in the habit. I guess it's sort of like working out, but I tend to think of it more in terms of flossing. And I don't mean that in the Xzibit type of way. I'm talking about old school, string in hand, struggling for those back teeth flossing. If it's not a part of your routine it is literally impossible to start, and it takes like a year of doing it everyday to make flossing a part of your daily schedule. Basically, I'm just trying to say I'm sorry. Hi Andy!

Anyway, kind of a lot has happened in the past week or so. Mitt Romney dropped out of the Republican presidential race, the writers' strike is primed to end tomorrow, Herbie Hancock won album of the year, and Sleepy Pete had a string of four consecutive days that were all exactly the same. Incredible. Shattered the previous record of three consecutive days.

It's nice to get back in the saddle. But in truth, it's a bit itchy.
