Future: Unknown

As you've all probably figured out (the four or five of you that keep reading this site), I've become nothing short of hopeless at keeping this blog active. It's a combination of things - between real life, work, marriage, dogs, cycling, and generally enjoying life, as well as writing for Pajiba and (hopefully) continuing to write about music, I simply don't have the time.

Which sucks, because I love this blog. It's what got me started. I met some good... no, great because of it. I've done a surprising amount of soul-baring on it, some of which was so intense that I eventually went back and removed it - there are some things that should remain mine, I suppose. It helped me find a home at Pajiba, and introduced me to dozens, if not hundreds, of new people. I was surprised at the amount of attention it got - little by major blogging standards, but considering it was nothing more than stories about me hurting myself and pictures of my dogs, that was quite a shock.

But as of late, I've been neglecting the ol' Meat Factory. Which leads me to think that it might be time to let it die. I mean, we're in the 40th week of 2009, and this will be my 21st post. There was a time when I'd write 21 posts in a single month... but then again, I had a lot more spare time back then.

So it's not official yet, but it probably will be soon. We'll see.

Then again, you always know where to find me.

Sure I just join up and you're going to quit. It's me isn't it? What did I do? Don't go TK! I can change! Tell me what to change! You jerk!

Slacker! I totally updated MY blog twice this month and I'm the laziest person I've ever met!

Why'd you have to go and let it die?!

Seriously, where will we go to read about insane job applications and interviews; random rants and near death experiences? Do you really want to make us beg?

In conclusion, don't quit.

I just found out about the wasp's nest headbonk and now this? If you disband your...meat thingie...how will I find out more about the man behind the mayhem?

Sigh.

You're throwing in the towel? Admittedly I'm just noticing now (life really does get in the way of reading blogs...and in my case actually blogging), but still... Sad face.
