    In a word, neglect

    So it's been around four months since I posted anything, either chapter or blog post, and that sucks. To explain, I really just neglected to maintain the story or this blog. I did play a lot of Minecraft though, which was fun. And I've been having lots of fun with all my graduate level classes. Currently the University is on break between summer and fall quarter and this plethora of free time

    Off to Canada!

    Today my family and I are packing up and heading to sunny Canada for a skiing vacation. I'm really excited for it as my brother has been there before and says the snow is awesome. I'm also excited because I've been making significant (p<0.05) progress in completing the next chapter or two of WMHB. I have to admit that during winter term I didn't make much progress what with being consumed with

    And I'm Back!

    Well I'm finally back from vacation so I can get caught up on all things pony. Just so you all know, the place I was staying at did not have an internet connection from me to take advantage of, which is why I pretty much went silent for the last 12 days. That said I'm going to catch up on comments today and post the next chapter of WMHB too. In fact I'm going to get to work on that as soon as

    Another Vacation, Another Chapter... Or two

    So remember four months ago when I said I had a chapter of WMHB just about finished and I was going to post it but didn't. Well first off I feel like an ass for that but second it now means that I have what amounts to two full chapters completed. It all kinda goes back to the fact that I thought Twilight's whole trip through the Everfree was going to be over and done with in like 10K words, but

What's going on? Where am I? · 4:59am Jul 9th, 2015

So first thing's first...

Fig. 1 Behold!

Ok, now then. Where to start? It seems my last blog post was like 10 months ago. Holy crap, that's long enough for my absence to have given birth to a smaller baby absence. Why is that so I hear none of you asking? Well for the answer to that question, please refer to Fig. 2.

Fig. 2 Refer to it.

Ok. So, real quick short version. I was studying to get into grad school, didn't get into grad school, ran out of money for studying in the first place, had to move into a really skeezy apartment in a really skeezy part of town, got a job as a canvaser, lost the job as a canvaser because apparently I'm not convincing enough for people to give me donations when I tell them that druging farm animals is going to make them die of super tuberculosis (check it, it's a real thing http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/supercharged-tuberculosis-made-in-india1/?WT.mc_id=SA_Facebook), had multiple personal breakdowns because I seem incapable of advancing my lot in life despite a robust vocabulary and mad calculus skills, helped my girlfriend ship out to Ireland for study abroad, and finally colapse on the couch alone in my skeezy apartment with nothing better to do than commit the solitary sin and actually start writing again. What an impressive almost year!

So all that being the case I finally got around to finishing the next chapter of WMHB. I admit it didn't turn out how I expected it to, but I like it none the less. Further, I can say that because my girlfriend will be out of the country for a while I'll have literly nothing else to do but stew in my own feelings of inadequacy and write pony things! In fact I even wrote a short and completely shameless clop story that I'm still undecided about weather or not I'll publish. It started as a one-shot tho I've been toying with expanding it, so who knows? As for the future, I'm currently trying to get a jog at a lumber mill for lack of anything better, so i might just have time to keep this streak alive.

Fig. 4 ALL OF MY YES!

So there you have it. A brief update on what's been up with me and what I think might happen in the future. Can you really expect any more than that? I will of course try to respond to any comments or messages quickly, so if any of you rabid fans out there want any more chit chat from me than this feel free to go nuts. I look forward to hearing from you all soon!

Peace!

Thanks for your support! It means a lot to me. :twilightsmile:

Reading other people's blogs makes it really hard not to think about how crappy my life is.

Well you know what the say, misery loves company. Tho I suspect the relationship is entirely one sided. :pinkiecrazy:
