The Comeback Kid

Is this mic still working?
Looks like I haven’t been here in a long while.
The truth of the matter of the fact of the reality is that I’ve been fairly busy (shoot-out to my work peeps).
That is, indeed, a poor excuse, but I don’t have a dog to blame everything on.

Moving on.

During my break-time from the blogosphere, I have received countless e-mails (I don’t know how to count over ten) about “when I would come back” or “how about you move your ass and write something to help me out on this Dallas spec?”, or better yet, “what’s up with that” (oooo ooo weeee).

My own bat-signal had been launched into the sky. My return to adventure. My moment of triumph. My call to arms.
But I resisted.
And then I realized.
Oh, who am I kidding?
A writer craves attention like Joffrey Baratheon needs a good smack-down.

Here we go.

It is with great sadness that, like all great Messiahs before me, I am announcing the launch of an exploratory committee to potentially, perhaps, maybe….return to the world of wisdom-giving.

At this point, you may be wondering why I’m even bothering writing this post, especially if I am merely considering coming back instead of outright committing to it.

Here’s the thing: I can’t quit you guys. But I can’t quit my busy life either.
So, let’s make a deal.
I will come back here, as often as I can, to write interesting, insightful, thought-provoking, charming, magnificent, orgasmic, earth-shattering posts (notice the smooth transition to veridical adjectives).
In exchange for all of this, come back to me! Don’t leave me! You complete me! I have strong abandonment issues!
I’ll take your silence as your agreement.

But wait.
It’s not over yet.
You didn’t think I would write a new post four months after the last one just to ramble about, did you?

And now, for the real announcement everybody has been waiting for since the dawn of mankind…

I am currently working on the 2012 Spec List.
The double-whammy will be posted in the next couple of weeks.
What a twist!

To be continued.
For realsies.
