THE IN-BETWEEN
I’m currently in a transitional space, stuck, floating adrift between my current life, that of an anxiety-ridden, middle-aged, disillusioned dude, and my next life, which is moving with my wife and weirdo dog to a new country. I’ve got one foot out the fucking door of America and I’ve become pretty much ambivalent to most things happening here in the states, at my job, on my street, etc. I’m just willing and ready to move on to the next phase, which, fingers fucking crossed, will be granted to us in the next couple weeks. It’s a very weird place to be, mentally, completely and utter done, and over, the place you’ve lived for 41 years and some change, but here we are.
But it’s also fairly thrilling, and exciting The prospect of leaving a place that has become so bleak and hopeless for us, with a clear, new destination is invigorating and that vigor has reenergized my creative spark thusly granting me more fire and vim for projects I’ve long been mulling over, or, too afraid to share, or thought people would think it’s fucking stupid. Well, fuck those thoughts.
So, there’s that.
THINGS I’VE DONE LATELY
OTHER THINGS
Aside from my moving activities and making stuff I dig all my remaining attention is fully focussed on the impending release of Street Fighter 6, which should be downloading on to my Playstation 5 next Friday. Pretty much all of my media consumption has been based around that. I’m going to have a fucking blast trying out all the characters, slapping jerks around, and being a big ol’ Street Fighter nerd.
It was World Goth Day sometime this week and due to that happening I stumbled across this list of the 10 Greatest Goth Albums of All Time so in honor of the goths and their day I’ve been running these through my ears.
THAT’S ALL
Thanks again for reading these and looking at my stuff.
