Hey, Whomever.

Hello there.

It's been a good while since I've posted anything on here. Well, nearly 5 months, to be exact.

I'm sorry.

I just got really busy, what with school, and work, and...well, you don't want to hear any of this.

The point is that I had been posting and then I hadn't. Not there are any people out there that ever really did read this regularly, to whom my seeming disappearance would mean a great deal, but still. I feel like I owe the blog, and myself, an explanation. Or at least an apology.

I haven't read much (read: any) Stephen King since that post. Nor have I done much writing. I seem to be in the habit of living in waves. I'll go through periods of intense interest for a while, and then get completely super-interested in something entirely different. I'm only Human (so they've told me). I don't know that it's necessarily a problem; I do truly like Stephen King, and I did have fun writing those short bits of fiction, but there's really no reason for me to expect myself to be constantly involved with them. Plus, I really don't think I have commitment issues or anything like that; I tend to be in things for the long haul.

On the topic of it, I have got another idea for a short story floating around in my brain (don't worry, you don't need your popcorn ready or anything, it is simply an idea). Well, it's more of an idea for a short film (short, like tops three minutes). It's an idea I've had for a while. It's (it's NOT music video) a movie set to a Frank Sinatra song, I believe the title is something like "The Way You Wear Your Hat" or something of the sort. For years, every time I hear that song, this idea starts playing in my head. I'm not a film-er, though, so I don't know that the idea will ever realize it's true purpose. But I suppose I could try my hand at penning it out, either in straight prose or as more of the 'screenplay' for this ridiculously short film. So, perhaps at some point in the future that'll show up here. And don't worry, it's not cheesy.

Finally, in case any of you are wondering, the thing that's been consuming my time lately (aside from school an work, of course) has been the Rubik's cube. I've known how to do it for a good while now, but have recently really gotten in to it. Today I just got to the point where I can solve the more advanced 4x4x4 Cube completely independently, without having to reference algorithms. Even with any case (or cases) of parity. It's pretty sweet, yo. Next on the agenda is a 5x5x5. Who knows, perhaps I'll upload a video on here of me doing the Cubes, and perhaps even an instructional tutorial (I've always had an affinity for doing stuff like that).

Well, it's rather late, and I'm rather tired. I just wanted to update.

Thanks, again, to whomever is out there.
