    <content type="html">&lt;br /&gt;&lt;p class="blogSubject"&gt;It&amp;rsquo;s been awhile ... &lt;br /&gt;Current mood: &lt;img src="http://x.myspace.com/images/blog/moods/iBrads/aggravated.gif" align="absMiddle" alt="" /&gt; aggravated &lt;br /&gt;Category: &lt;a href="http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.viewCategory&amp;amp;FriendID=6317989&amp;amp;BlogCategoryID=12"&gt;&lt;font color="#003399"&gt;Life&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="blogContent"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So, it's been awhile since I've thrown down with a myspace blog, so now is as good a time as any. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;Updates, spent most of the last two years of my life trying to&amp;nbsp;recover from my big fuck-up &amp;quot;He who shall not be named&amp;quot; (btw&amp;nbsp;Neva, that's a Harry Potter reference;)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;I have had my uptimes, my down times, my drooling on the floor times. (My moaning on the floor times;)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;The work I do sustains my soul, but sometimes I get to thinking that's all I've got within me that makes me good.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;Let's just say this HAS NOT&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;been a banner&amp;nbsp;year for Ms. Fancy-Pants (that would be me)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;Actualizing ones fantasies, sexual or not, can be a very fufilling thing.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;But something has happened. I can't feel my heart anymore. It is now like a conch shell.&amp;nbsp; You could blow right through me. A little girl in ponytails could yell &amp;quot;Hellllllllooooooo,&amp;quot; and hear the echo. Hope it's not too late.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;My passion&amp;nbsp;(when it's productive)&amp;nbsp;is&amp;nbsp;housed inside of me, stagnant. It is&amp;nbsp; hypervigilant, casing every room, feeling out every scene. Being a chameleon comes very natural to me most times. It can come in handy.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;So, I am floating occassionally without thought or pain. Or finding a way to ensure I stay that way.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;When I take my strong&amp;nbsp;apple-core and get my shit together, I will no longer spend every moment seeking to be numb.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font color="#663300"&gt;Happy Fall everyone!&amp;nbsp; snark snark&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</content>
