Holy Hell in a Hand Basket
20 Jun
Me in San Diego recently. Kick ass place.
Like my grandma used to say:
“Holy hell in a handbasket!”
That’s right bitches, I’m back.
Actually I’m lying.
My grandma never uttered those words in her life. And nor do I ever say “that’s right bitches” to anyone in any context, so we’re either 2 for 2 or none for none, depending on how you want to count.
But anyway what I’m trying to say here, dear friends, readers, stumblers, and random search engine traffic visitors is:
Lookie! It’s another post on Dreaming Life.
It’s been a long time.
And like the punk rock DIY zines of yesteryear, each of which started with a cut and pasted introduction (which back then was in reference to literally cutting and pasting with actual scissors, paper, and paste – imagine that!) proclaiming the zine editors amazement at how long it’s taken this issue to get out and blah blah, this is the blog-age digital equivalent to such confessions.
It’s been like a year and some change since the last blog post. In that time I was (and still am) working for myself doing the whole Internet Marketing/Niche website thing. Which means I make a lot of websites on products and consumer services and then sell ads on those sites. It’s a pretty awesome formula, but one that typically stands in stark contrast to what, dare I say, real blogging is all about: writing and connecting with other people!
And damn, ya’ll, that’s what I effin’ miss.
So I got a pretty new theme here, a good attitude, and lots of words & ideas to get out. Maybe I’ll just start posting all sorts of stuff on here and see what floats my boat, see what sticks: dream reports, personal stuff, experimental prose, hell maybe even my art and music. We’ll see.
Or maybe I’ll follow this up with a post in 2011 where I say all the same things again about how long it’s been since I posted on this blog.
Nah, I think I’ll stick around for awhile and share my thoughts with the world, and see what happens. It’s more fun that way, don’t you think?
welcome back! it’s been a while. how’s been the dreaming this last year?
Howdy Ryan! Great to see you around mate. Only recently have I begun to remember and write down my dreams again. I’ve been using this program called “The Journal” to write things down and keep track of my dreams – it’s great, it’s gotten to be a feedback loop of sorts where the more I write my dreams down, the easier I remember them, causing me to write them down more, etc. I actually had a very short lucid dream the other night – first one in a bit – which was nice, although there was really only weak lucidity going on, but nevertheless I still enjoyed moving my hands through things over and over and marveling at the situation.
How have you been?
Dude – I see your SP book is coming out in print! That is just super duper great my friend. Couldn’t be happier for you with that & will definitely be looking for a copy once it’s out. Also, I’m thrilled that even though myself, Kris @ Reality Shifter, and Hatter @ Dreaming to Infinity all kinda stopped posting on our dream blogs, Dream Studies is stronger than ever.
