mother of pearl what have i been doing?!?

It feels like I haven't updated this blog in half a year! Half a year! That's six months! Surely I have gobs of titillating career and life info to share with you, all in this one post! Right?!? Write?!?

Have you ever had a blog, and then you kinda forgot that you actually had a blog? And not because one of your fans wrote you a nice email inquiring into the current status of your whereabouts and doabouts. Or not because you never call your mother, and a blog is the best way for her to find out about all the legal and publishable stuff you're doing with your unused bachelor's degree, and she writes you a nice text asking when your blog will be updated. (That was a terrible sentence grammatically, I apologize. But the sentiment remains.)

None of those are true! I've just been sooo busy this year (2013?) and I had to let my intern go. And let's be honest, she was only good at updating this blog. WHICH SHE APPARENTLY HASN'T DONE FOR SIX WHOLE MONTHS.

So here we go. You wanna know what I've been up to? Let's do this. Ok. You ready? I hope you have at least eleven minutes to read this entire post, 'cause I'm gonna fill it with some amazing and detailed career exploits. From the past six months.

Argh, this is tough.
