The Night is Dark, and Full of Terrors.

A year. Almost a year and a half of not divulging my deepest, darkest thoughts into this mighty contraption which is my blog. A lot of things have happened, and a lot of things have changed. Why don't we start with a little recap?

Last we saw our hero, he was grappling with a huge dilemma - which one of the fine, lovely ladies he was seeing then would accompany him through the next, and definitely trickiest part of his life: a rebuild.

Gladly, he made the right choice - he chose the Singer. She is now the love of his life, his lovely Angel of Music. If I were to recount the perilous journey from the moment of clarity to today's night of solitude. It would be another blog post in itself. However, one thing is for certain - if in the past, the word 'solitude' evoked a shudder from our protagonist, that was because it signified another failed venture into matters of the heart. Now, one can say that he has grown world-weary and that solitude is his only time of rest from all of the unnecessary bullshit he encounters in his life on a daily basis.

Another thing that has changed in our hero's life is that he has been able to keep a stable job; yes, my dear readers - it's the same job that he sought when his journey back from the (metaphorical) grave began. Not only has he kept his job, but has actually gotten much better at it! Will you look at that. And on a daily basis, he hears whispers that his rise will continue on... But we will have to watch for that development.

Life with his Angel of Music has not been what our hero expected when he fought valiantly for his fair maiden's heart. The fact that the both of them are still together is a huge achievement in and of itself. Again, a separate tale will be written about it soon.

For now, your humble storyteller simply wants to update anyone who cares to know about how our wily hero has done in the span of time since his last tale has been sung.

Don't change the channel, folks. Story's just getting better from here.
