It's been a while

So I'm not sure how to start this post, except to say that I'm sorry for basically falling off the face of the earth these last few months. Well, beyond the occasional Tumblr update. I really don't know where the time went. I've been in such a funk recently, to say the least, and it just sucks. But I'm hoping that doing this quick post will help me to get the ball rolling, something something object in motion yadda yadda. 

If nothing else, I desperately need to get the Monkees Rewatch post for "Everywhere a Sheik, Sheik" done and over with, so I can move on to episodes that don't pain me to write about. Oy. Maybe once I rip that band-aid off the rest will follow suit. 

Here's hoping. 

Building the Buffer

Okay, time to knock some of my rust and dust off with a quick list post. 

1. I apologize for being silent over here recently. I’d rather not go into the reasons or make any excuses, because that won’t help anything. I just want to get back on track and move forward. While I prefer to post essays upon completion, I’m going to take some time to work on a bunch of posts, so that I’ll have a buffer and hopefully avoid another false start.

2. Like last February, I am once again participating in the Music Writers Exercise hashtag (#MWE) on Twitter, which so far has helped jumpstart my daily tweets that have been quite sporadic the last few months. 

3. As always, if you’d suggest an album, feel free to do so with a comment or tweet. Only two rules: no McCartney and no Bowie. For… reasons. 

4. In case you didn’t know, V&B also has a Tumblr now! It’s kind of an extension of my Twitter. I have some plans and ideas for Tumblr-only content that should be cool and I’m very excited about.

Stay tuned!
