I know.

I am incredibly delinquent.

The Online-Journalism Doom Cocktail calls for a shot of Busy with Work Stuff combined with about a jigger of Nothing Else Interesting, then top the glass with about six ounces of Crabby and Irritable.

You're not allowed to serve it over ice, by the way, because then it would be refreshing, and we can't have that.

At least, I am practicing what I preach and trying to write every day, even if it doesn't all make it online. Some of it, okay, a lot of it, doesn't even get saved, because it's pants. But I can still write. Haven't forgotten how or anything.

So, hey, how's by you?

Go listen to Deni and Sharon's podcast. You can actually subscribe to theirs. I was going to see how to set up mine so you could subscribe to it, but then I realized that was going to be the Podcast Cocktail of Doom: equal parts of effort and preparation, shake well, and the whole thing just evaporates before you can drink it.

When I say nothing else is going on, I'm very much not kidding.

I have no news, nothing pertinent, no decent rants, no time to catch up with other people and comment on what they had to say, blah blah whocarescakes.

I feel very social and want to go out and meet people, which is very uncharacteristic of me, but this goes hand-in-hand with my having of no time in which to do so.

Screw cocktails. I'm going to throw a scoop of vanilla into the bottom of a big glass and top it with Dogfish Head 120 minute. Yay, it's a Drunk Float. And it has nothing to do with calling in CSI.

It's that time of year again ...

If you donate to That Man's Paypal, he'll know who you are and tell me to put you on this year's shirt, but if you donate directly to the United Way or mail your donation directly to the clinic, I have no way of knowing what a nice thing you did unless you tell me.

You've only got a few days left to get onto the Shirt of Much Tackiness. It's blue this year. You do want to be on a blue shirt, don't you?
