Wow. WOW. I have not written in this thing in over 2 years. In fact, I forgot what website it was until I had a sudden epiphany like 5 minutes ago. Of course I forgot my password, but that can all be retrieved ( Read more... )

Well here I am, supposedly in the city with the most opportunity in the world and I am feeling quite down. I have no job, no friends, no money, and I am not necessarily happy ( Read more... )

Well it has been quite awhile since the last time I have written. I think I can honestly say that I was in kind of a momentary crisis last time I wrote but I am much better now. Haha ( Read more... )
