“If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change…”
-Michael Jackson

Y’all. I had to quote Michael.

I have no real opinions on his death really, except to hope it was natural causes, that it wasn’t an OD – because the dude (crazy as he might have been) had children. So, y’know, there’s that. Also… he made a lot of music over the years. Some is classic shit that I have loved and will always love – some of it was a flaming pile of crap. Law of averages and all that.

I’ve been gone awhile. It’s summer and it’s been chaotic and all of that. I have projects I’m working on and irons in the fire and frankly, I have been going through a hard time that I didn’t feel like broadcasting, even under my somewhat anonymous Lyrically blog. Sometimes you get to the point where you realize you can only spew so much venting — and then it’s time to reevaluate, take a look at what’s not working and then figure out how to make it better.

Sure, venting would have gone a long way in the past week to making me feel better. I won’t lie. My brain is CONSTANTLY moving. I was constantly checking and re-checking things in my head – would I have felt better seeing it written out? Probably. I gain a bit of perspective that way. However, I opted a different route, and while it was a somewhat lonelier route (keeping shit bottled up? Ugh – it’s teh suck), I think maybe I’ll be better off. Time will tell, right?

How are all of you? Good? Are you still here? My absence has probably made ya’ll run off. Bear with me. I’ll be back.
