Return of the Mack

Let’s face it, this song should play every time I walk in a room…

I’m back after a long hiatus. A lot has happened since my last real post in September. I lost a bunch of weight and gained it back. I lost my job and got a new one. I’ve been broke, super broke, super ultra broke, and back to just broke.

It was a struggle to find a consistent format for this blog when I was writing for it regularly. I wrote pieces about food, drink, sports, politics and music. I’m still not sure if it’s better to cover such a broad range of topics or if I should focus more on personal, introspective posts. I have been concerned about blabbing too much about myself, my life and my issues…who knows if anyone would even find that interesting. I’ve recently started down a path of self discovery and getting to the root of the anxiety, melancholy and mood instability that has plagued me since childhood. Maybe sharing some of what I learn will make for good reading, we’ll see. I’m not going to put pressure on myself to write constantly, but I do need a creative outlet and will challenge myself to at least find something to say once or twice a week. It will help me spend more time plugged into my mind instead of my computer.
