It's been a while. Truthfully I didn't miss blogging one bit. I left and never looked back, however for better or worse I am back to say I have returned.

I don't know why I just stopped blogging, I think it was a mix of school and my growing hate for the internet in general. Over the past few weeks my computer reminds me of things which I just don't want to deal with. Mainly applying for grad schools, writing an essay and sending half assed emails to a close friend who will remain nameless.

I've been swamped this year, my courses are busting my balls for more work then I have time for. On top of this I have to mentor all these students which adds a layer of stress I just could do without sometimes.

Also I don't really like the look of my new blog... I did a lot when I first started it but everytime I came to check up to make sure everything with still ok with it the layout was just boring to me. I might change the template again, but knowing how much of a pain in the ass this one was I expect to have it for a while longer.

Thinking I might move my blog over to absolutepunk.net considering I have blog space there I have yet to use. Plus it would be good for my band and most of my friends have blogs and profiles for the website. Problem is I wouldn't expect my friends who read this one to sign up for an account, so I am torn to what to do with that.

All and all it feels good to be back and posting again.

Wanted to also tell everyone, look out to bands being signed to Small Man Records, a band we toured with and love D.E.A. will be signing with them in the near future.

On a seperate note Mat download Say Anything - ... Is A Real Boy, Was A Real Boy
