long overdue for an update

well its been a while and i apologize to my two and a half faithful readers. i was on a four week vacation all over the eastern u.s. and then i had to completely erase everything off my computer and start from scratch because somehow it got messed up beyond belief. but now its working again. and here i am still alive a month and a couple life-threatening encounters later. so as of now i am just trying to get back and settle in and enjoy the rest of my summer. hopefully i will have some time to work on some music so who knows what might come of that. hopefully soon i will be able to get back in the swing of things and begin posting again. but i thought i would just let you know that i am alive and well. well thanks for dropping by and leave a comment if their is anything in particular you want to discuss with me or anyone else who might read this blog. well thanks again,
