Dear new followers…

You have probably figured out by now that whatever was going on in this blog on the day you stumbled across it, there has been a lot of other weird stuff going on since then. I do these posts occasionally to apologize for any confusion I might have caused. Because causing confusion is sort of what I do here. There is no better way to explain it.

Many of you might be disappointed that whatever it was that I was doing on that first visit has not been repeated. All I can say is… don’t hold your breath. I don’t mean that in a rude way. It is just that I have so little control over what my brain does that the odds are that I will never work my way back around to whatever it was that first caught your eye… unless you really like mean Photoshop pictures of Dick Cheney, because I will never get sick of messing with that… Dick.

That being said, I will make you a firm promise. I have set the ‘infinite scroll’ option on my dashboard. That means that you can just keep scrolling down until you get all the way to my very first blog post presumably. I am not saying you have to go that far. But just give this a try;

Scroll down quickly… just keep going… don’t stop and read anything or even focus on the pictures. Just let the totality of what I do wash over you. I guess you can stop and look if something really catches your eye. My promise is this;

There is something down there that will blow your freekin’ mind. I don’t know what it is. You don’t even know what it is… yet… but it will happen. If it doesn’t, I will give you your money back.

You could also, I suppose, pick a random month in the archives and go look at it. Whatever seems like the least amount of work. There is a slight chance that if you make a suggestion for a post idea and it gets lodged in my cranium, I will go crazy with it and spend weeks doing funny pictures and strange stories. I do like to consider this to be an interactive blog.

Thank you all.

    Now that I’m in here, trying to find the pearls among the swine (oh wait — I think that’s a monkey), I just gotta ask…why are my shoes stuck to the floor?

  3. The best way to enjoy blogging and have the most fun with it is to write exactly what you want. It’s better to be honest and put down how you feel than to force yourself to write something. I just started blogging and I can definitely relate to not controlling what I put down every time. Best of luck and keep up the awesome work 🙂

      • Now I feel bad that my shameless manipulation has you thinking that I am not going to do exactly as I please. If you knew me at all, you would know that I am the most self-absorbed person ever put on this Earth, and I never ever ever do what people expect… not even myself… but the only way you could know me that well is if you went back and read my whole blog, because the whole story of my life is in there… the struggle with being all art-side-of-the-brain, my original songs and art and… oh, dang it… I am doing it again…

    • Thank you so much. To be honest, I do these posts now and then because sometimes it works and I lure unsuspecting people down into the dark nether regions of the blog and that way I don’t have to reblog my old stuff.

      • Yeah, I’m still new to blogging so I guess theres no point to be re-blogging anything right now 🙂 Just putting my honest feelings out there.

        • No, you nailed it. You have to do what you want to do. If you start trying to make everybody happy you will not make anyone happy. Not even yourself. I am just flying around on the updrafts of my own craziness like a kite in a smelly wind. But for some reason some people like that I never do the same thing. That I have no plan at all and get sidetracked. Some people do one thing and do it well. I do lots of things and I suck at all of them.
