Guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back, guess who's back...



It has been a while since my last post, but let us skip the formalities of small-talk, the reasons why, etc.., because I’m sure you really don’t care.  Also I don’t have a reasonable explanation.

Now that I’m back, I’m not sure that I actually have much to say.  Is that weird?  Probably.  

So why don’t we just do a breakdown of life since my last post:

New Shoes – More than 5, but probably less than 10 (I think).  It is important to mention here, that one pair is currently plugged into a USB charger because THEY ARE LIGHT UP SNEAKERS.  I will just also say that they have 10 different modes of colours and effects.  BAM!.  Also, my shoe-crew has grown to include Onitsuka Tigers, yea boiii!

Career – Same.  Slinging beer and nachos whilst hustling to find a “real job”.  Miraculously, through the hustle, I have been led by some incredibly talented, and immensely successful people, who have taken time out of their busy lives to help me, for no other reason than being marvelous humans.  Happy to report that kindness is not an entirely lost art.

Friends – All of my friends are amazeballs, but I miss many of them.  You know who you are.

Family – Quality over quantity I guess.  I would prefer both, but beggars cannot be choosers. Did I weep inside a little writing that?  Yes.

Relationships – Wouldn’t you like to know!

Home – Finally took down the Christmas décor the other day.  My daughter was disappointed that I did it without her, but I pointed-out that I assumed we were both just being lazy, waiting for the other person to do it.  Well I know I was.

Bucket Lists – Was actually gifted breakdance lessons for my birthday (Ya hooo!!), but am yet to find a class that caters to the 40+ crowd, with zero dance experience.  PM me if you know of any.

Entertainment – Seen some really terrible movies. What is happening in the world that we can’t make decent movies anymore?  Like, did the 80’s end and we just said “well we can’t top that decade, so f*** it!”.  This might possibly be the explanation.

On a side note, there have been a few gems in television programming.  Most recent examples (the good ones): The Get Down, and People Just Do Nothing.  Watch and love.

Transportation – New breaks, new struts, new starter, new debt.

Wishes – The usual.

And with that thrilling summation, I wish for a better update next time. 

Yours truly,

A Genie In Chucks, PF Flyers, Onitsuka Tigers, or possibly the flyest, most badass sneakers lighting the dancefloor.
