Ok, FINE. I'll update.

It's been awhile. And yeah, the bloom is off the blogging rose. I'm signed up for an exciting writing workshop with Spike Gillespie in September, so I might see a resurgence in motivation. No promises.

I recently moved to a new place and I love it. The house is nice, the rent is cheap and I get to come home to a good friend everyday. While my partially-unpacked room doesn't reflect this, living with her is pushing me to be less of a lazy dirty slob. That's a good thing. And while my cat has seemed to handle the move in stride and has yet to pee on anything (cross your fingers this will continue), the dog has been acting up and she's peed on the carpet multiple times, despite being let out way more times per day than she's used to. My roommate works from home, so the dog gets plenty of attention. She is clearly upset about something and I'm about done with this little act. She's 8 years old. She knows better.

The new 'hood is in a totally different area of town and my street is in a quieter area, but it's still a pretty colorful area. And by that I mean the selection of energy drinks, sexual enhancement pills, MD 20/20 and Boone's Farm is quite stunning. So far my favorite is a drink called "Drank." It's an extreme relaxation beverage that promises to "slow your roll." Two out of two women in line at the convenience store say it's good. A friend bought one last night and I'm dying to hear how her Drank experience turned out. I, on the other hand, am reluctant to spend $2.50 on said beverage when I have red wine and Ambien at my disposal.

It's like a technicolor trip down high school drunken memory lane.

Biggest Energy Drink Collection EVER!

This week is going to be another hectic one with my brother's wedding coming up. Relatives will soon be descending upon Austin and the fun will begin. And I use the term "fun" loosely in this context. It's still a stressful weekend with family, but the booze will help. Or maybe I'll just slow my roll with some Drank.

And who knows? Maybe after all this, I'll be inspired to write another blog post. Until then, I have to get some shut eye.
