I'm currently on vacation at "The Dark Place".
Mama always told me to "shut the hell up if you don't have anything worthwhile to say." And since at The Dark Place, all I hear in my head is this: I hate my life and my career and everything about both. The only good thing I have in my life is my family. And that consists of my sister and niece across the state and various aunts and uncles strewn about the country.
I'm going to take mom's advice and get back to y'all when I have something pleasant or at least entertaining to share.
Respectfully submitted from the gates of hell.

- Wouldn't you like to know? . . . In case you would: I'm a girl. I'm in my late 30s. I was born under the glyph of death on the Mayan calendar. Yes, I'm Hispanic among a multitude of other cultures. I'm politically bored and incorrect. I don't pray or prey. I'm a scientist, but probably should have been a housewife. I'm not in a relationship. Sorry ladies, I like the fellers. I knit, but it's not likely you'll ever see my work on the internet. I wish I was a better writer. And while I'm wishing . . . I wish I was thinner, and made more money, and that things would get easier. I like it when I'm not all victimy.
Laughing at Tragedy!

I wish there was something I could write to help. I don't know why. I don't even know you. Don't stay away too long.
You have some kick-arse friends too you know, and you make a mean peanut brittle. Probably doesn't help, but please don't stop writing, it can be very cathartic and plus you're a bloody good writer. Maybe you just need a dose of CA sunshine and fifty margaritas - we'd be happy to supply both.
Besides, nobody wants happy happy sunshine blogs. If they did they'd read mine, which they don't. Barstards.
Hang in there, FH.
Never mind pleasant or entertaining; it's not so much the writing as the writer we care about. But without your writing it's pretty cold and boring out here, so make this a short vacation, okay?
You rock.
I kind of miss you already...and I don't even know you. Come back soon?
You are a "bloody good writer." I don't know enough about you to say more, but do know there are those of us out here who miss your presence. And a blog is a great place to stick your darkness, if you ask me.
Ah a fellow sufferer. I copy my hero Churchill and call mine 'my black dog' I try to live to please myself to avoid it, "is my post funny? will they like it?" then I say "fuck em I liked it".
Thanks to you all for your kind words. I am the proverbial dung beetle and I'm pulling my shit together to come back from my sadly pathetic little "vacation". I'm dusting off my boxing gloves and I promise to come out of this swinging hard so hang on... the tales of my misadventures aren't done.
