i told people that i feel guilty about not posting recently, so i was just going to do one of those "hey, i'm not dead" entries... and here you go.
but i've managed to keep up on a few blogs, and i guess everyone's doing those "as i look back on this past year..." thing, and i don't want to be left out, so... you know, substance in writing is the way to go... i can't seem to stop with these ellipses...
...
anyway, i hope everyone had a good holiday. i usually choose "good" as my adjective for these types of things, but then when i read it again, i rethink it because it looks like i'm wishing you all a mediocre time. but i'm not, don't worry. i'm really wishing for the bestgreatestfantabulous memory ever.
it's clearly good for several reasons that i haven't blogged in over a month.
i'm not really partial into making my blogs into those times for reflections. i have a much more exciting time converting my life into an amusing story - through both moments of happiness and sadness because happiness permeates and at least when i'm sad, someone can find it entertaining - and somehow, it seems that setting it down in writing makes it matter.
it usually takes about two or three years for me to start thinking, "yo jesus, i'm a different person." (because "yo jesus" is clearly interchangeable with the likes of "holy shit") it's when i go back and assess and compare connie of the present to connie of the past, and i did this about a few months ago, so i'm not due for another two or three years. see, times of happiness to share with you.
and as much as i change through the years, there are several savors i'd like to maintain, one of which is the ability to regale others. i'm not quite sure what i've become today, or of how others' perception of me might have changed (you still love me, right?), but at the end of the day - and at the end of my life - i think i will always hope that everyone has a smile on his/her face, that everyone is happy, if even for a second. and so, when you visit my site, i hope it takes you away, for even just a moment, from your taxing life. or perhaps my pitiful attempts at humor might still bring a smile to your face if only to mark the beginnings of a laugh at my writing and ramblings. it's there to liven you, to inspirit you, to happinessify you.
that's a word.
happy few days before 2008. thank you all for being an audience, a visitor. a friend.
