Even though there's been a number of incidents and situations over the past couple of weeks that I'd typically capture here, I've had a lack of drive to write about them or anything. I have a list of 40+ topics, three or four partially completed entries, including yet another rat tale, but for some reason, I just don't seem to be able to put my energy into posting anything. I know for certain that part of it stems from rethinking the site and my intentions/use of this forum, and part stems from a lack of motivation or feeling that anything I'm doing here is really going to make a difference in the long run. I like to think that things I post give one a reason to think, to chuckle or just to wonder how bad my childhood must have been that I'd have such demons dancing in my head. But ultimately, this is likely to be the one true chronicle and marker of my existence, in whatever limited capacity or impact it truly is.
Anyway, It's uncharacteristic, at least for me, to go 2 weeks without anything being posted here. So here's something. :-)
