First Post

Lately I've felt like something has been missing from my life, some lost piece that is keeping me from feeling whole. As I sat contemplating what it could be, (a meaningful relationship? a satisfying job? a belief in a higher power?)I realized it could only be one thing. I needed a public diary where I could share my private thoughts and writings with the entire internet! Oh happy day, kalu kalay!

Seriously we'll see how long this lasts or how far it goes, blogs are really just an excuse to keep your writing skills sharp, and that's something that I need. So look for posts on whatever may be going through my mind. TV reviews, what books I've been reading, etc. If I get drunk enough you may even be subjected to what I charitably call poetry. For now I'll leave you with some words of wisdom from Al Swearengen, the lovable pimp and barkeep of the town of Deadwood, and the inspiration for this blog's name. "In life you have to do a lot of things you don't fucking want to do. Many times, that's what the fuck life is... one vile fucking task after another. "
