Writer's Block is Serious for a Writer.

I think that the reason I haven't been updating my blog is because I haven't had anything very interesting on my mind. Here lately, I haven't been inspired to write anything worth my time and effort. It's sort of a pressing issue on my life right now.
I used to have such a passion for writing, I would come up with something new every week or even on a daily basis. But, as though I'm a dried up sponge, I have no water to take in or squeeze out anymore. I need an epiphany.

What do you write about when you have writer's block? (Nothing?) Actually, writer's block. That's the point of this post isn't it? And, it's good to hear from you again, by the way.

I don't know how, but for some reason, I have a lot of views on my blog page. Maybe it's just a bunch of trolls just skimming by to see if there's anything they can spam... or maybe, just maybe, there might actually be intelligent life out there trying to see if I've updated in the past two years. Sadly, this is my first post in a very long time. For good reason though.

For the past two years, I have been trying to get myself out of a rut. Every time I think I'm out, I've fallen into another one. It's a vicious cycle, really. (So, you haven't made it out yet?) No, not yet. I've still managed to get myself into yet another rut, it seems. (How awful that must feel..) You're so nice to consider my feelings! Yes, well, it's not the worst rut I've been in yet.

So, does this mean I'll start posting again? Maybe.. That all depends. I've actually found the motivation to write today, perhaps I'll find it tomorrow.

Looters. (An unfinished post.)

It's been quite a while since I've last updated my blog. So much has happened and I haven't had the time.
First of all: My hometown of Joplin, Mo. was hit by a tornado. Thankfully, no one close to me died. It's old news to the media, but here it's still taking some by surprise. The realization of the whole thing just dampens spirits. My family and I have been volunteering and trying to help, but this thing isn't going to go away.
There are people all over Joplin that have literally lost everything, from homes, cars and drivers licenses to loved ones, co-workers, and jobs. It is such a mess. Sometimes, I wonder if we will ever recover.
What's worse, is that there are people who have been going around taking things from the debris that don't belong to them. Looters.
