I've missed me too but there you are and here I am and that's alllll that's left of the Wicked Witch of the West. Who knew a tornado could last a whole fucken decade?

Now I know - its embarrassing, and I get manic and paranoid and fucked-up and delusional and depressed but also save the world sometimes all in just one hour. <i>All of that does not mean I'm using drugs</i> ... just had to get that right out there first thing.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">For some reason I *still* think I can save the world coz guess what I can, so can you. True story, bro. Sorry it's been so long since I was proper proper back but like someone said years ago: <i>"It's easy to change the world but so hard to change yourself."</i></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">I changed then saved myself and fuck it's good to be here. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">It's good. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">To just be. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">Here.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">I'll be back tomorrow ... writing here every day until further notice.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;">I love you and like Bono often says at the end of a U2 concert:</span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><i>"Thanks for stickin' round."</i></span></div><div><br /></div><div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: times; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div></div>
