A Sort-Of Apology

Hey guys, I just wanted to kind-of apologize for the utter lack of activity these past few weeks. As all the American readers know (let's be honest - not too many readers in general, these days), both holidays came at the first of the week, which meant (basically) four-day holidays for most, but my personal hell is that the places around here are only open 1/2-days on both Wednesdays and Saturdays, which resulted in my basically having to run roughshod to try and contact businesses and so forth the entire week! Both holidays crept-up on me and by the time I realized they were here, I was further shocked to find out they were at the start of the week, so I totally put like one or two things off one day and woke up the next to find out that I wasn't going to be able to get anything accomplished for two fucking weeks!

Not to mention I have been waiting for two deliveries for literally three weeks now, so I have been afraid to leave the house! Partially because I don't want to miss the delivery guy, but also because I'm at least 100% positive one of the assholes who lives in the complex would steal anything they found left outside my door. I'm left to hope that I would need to sign for whatever arrives and I have not heard back from any of the companies...

I mean, I love the holidays, but it is kind of ridiculous, you know?

Anyway, I had a pretty good Christmas, as I hope all of you did as well, and this is like the third day in a row I've been drinking (with at least one more to go), so the New Year looks good from the bottom of this glass (knock wood)...

A few "odd" news stories cropped-up over the holidays, but nothing paranormal in nature, nor newsworthy enough to report, really. Oh! I met a Sasquatch... at least I'm pretty sure it was a Sasquatch; she was tending bar in Decatur County, TN.

Anyway, I am thinking of combing through search engines to find some of the New Year's traditions and superstitions to bring you... you know, that's sort of the thing with this blog, as I've said before: if you really care to know these things, you can find them out on your own, even if you do have to spend a lot of time and money to do so, so it's kind of nice to have one place where you can go to just get the overall "gist" of certain weird topics without having to do a lot of work on your own. And to those ends, I honestly try to bring you insightful and fairly replete coverage of such things. Lately, I've been spinning a lot of plates and had a lot of personal stuff to deal with as well, so it hasn't been as easy. Hopefully, all of that will be well out of the way very, very soon, and we'll see what comes out of the rest of this.

Thanks for reading and here's to you and yours!
