I’m really uncomfortable with this whole “return to blogging.”
Mostly because I hate blogging. I hate the word “blog” and “blogosphere” and “blogger” and dear jesus don’t let me hear the word “podcast” ever ever ever again.
I also hate all bloggers.
Especially guys like Jerz who have become mega superstars in my absence.
Jay has become way more of a superstar- he’s bordering on nova.
There’s lots of other people I read who deserve mentions but I want to talk about me.
Well, what have I done while on my sabbatical?
I moved my family to a tropical island in the middle of - well, to tell the truth I still don’t know where Guam is.
The move has gone well. We love the tropical (perfect) weather, and a lot of the food is good. There’s plenty of great people here and island life has much to offer. Sometimes, the lack of fresh veggies or the high cost of utilities and good beer get us down, but it’s the price you pay to be surrounded by beaches.
Heidi and Paige are great- you can always read our exploits at adkinscentral.
I visited Japan. I’ve gotten back into the gym. I’ve been to the beach a few times. I’ve seen the most incredible things in the jungle- and in the water. I spent 21 days as a vegan and it was the healthiest Ive ever felt. I gave up coffee. That’s a lie.
I haven’t seen a (non-local) live musical performance and it’s killing me. Ok, i went to a hoobastank concert and I am deeply ashamed about that. I have had precious few salads. I haven’t pissed anyone off on the internet.
I didn’t miss you. I came back because I crave attention. In case that shocks anyone’s delicate sensibilities, I will share with you the relationship advice my dear Grandmother used to bestow upon the girls of the family:
“Don’t think you’re special- if he could get it from a Gorilla he would- and be just as happy.”

Long Story Longer added these pithy words on Feb 06 07 at 3:23 amJesus, you’re angst-y.
Yay! Welcome back. We hate you, too. I’ve missed the quick wit, so, no pressure, but we’re waiting. Say something funny.
edadkins added these pithy words on Feb 06 07 at 10:01 amThanks!!!
I’m really not full of angst though. It’s more like disdain. Disdain and a slight feeling of superiority. Disdain, superiority and sometimes a gassy feeling.
Either way I appreciate the support. Please come back often.
Laura added these pithy words on Feb 08 07 at 10:29 amNo salads or veggies, but vegan. That’s a brain teaser.
Kenneth Andrew Bell added these pithy words on Feb 15 07 at 8:09 amAgain……The War on Terror is the most effective ad campaign ever devised. Six years later after nothing…..our police and officials are “terrorfied” to the core of anything that looks like the size of a loaf of bread and they knew what it was 3 weeks ahead of time. The fact that these boxes had already been out blinking for 2 weeks before ANYONE complained means the police were ordered by Homeland Security(WH) to over-react to get some terror play out of it. This has been done dozens of times nationally since 9/11. Remember the ONLY people on the planet calling this terror related were the Government and City officials who are in charge of trying to solicit federal money to fight horrific terrorism that has never been seen in the US for 6 years. Thus continues the most effective marketing campaign ever………
