The lawn needs mowing, and i have my crayons
Hows that for a random title?
Would it be lazy of me to simply say how busy things are lately? Sorta why I haven’t been in touch with a friend or something?
Or is this the final acceptance that I simply cannot maintain this thing, and that I have lost the verve to keep it ticking over. This page reminds me of a lower class abode with car parts strewn haphazardly over the front lawn
It’s not that I’m tired of writing, either. I’ve been churning stuff out like a machine lately, taking notes and splaying words across the screen like a child with a clean wall and a huge box of crayons.
So… is this the “It’s not you, it’s me” line?
I dunno. Frankly, it doesn’t matter at the end of the day. The world continues to turn, everyone who isn’t me will remain a deluded tool, and the universe will snort as it wakes up and says, “Andy who?” before rolling over indifferently.

If this is your farewell post Andy, it’s one of the best I’ve read and totally in concert with the tone of this blog.
Maybe you have found your calling elsewhere, and it is time to graduate to bigger and better opportunities to further your writing than a mere blog.
As one of your original commenters, I know that your writing talents will shine elsewhere, and the lawn will be greener than the colours of this blog. And if it’s not, you’ll always colour it with your crayons.

If you really are desperate for a topic, you could get one of those Extreme Trackers and do a post on the weird ways people get to your blog--I'm just sayin', that is a tried and true gap-filler.
(How steph ^ would be a good dominatrix is also a topic one could explore at length in prose. In fact, that might even make a good SERIES...)

A decade has passed since this post was published, and not a year goes by where I don't revisit your blog and reread some of your posts. In three years time, it'll be a decade since I actually discovered The Inane Asylum (when I was about 15), and encountered a writer whose wit and sardonicism became such a staple inspiration in my life. Ahh. Don't know if you'll ever read this. But thanks, and happy new year.

@C.H. Thank you for reading my blog over the years and I am glad that someone found value in what I wrote. It has been nearly a decade since you added your comment (2016), and I've only recently looked over this old thing to see what I once wrote. Thank you for the comment and hope you are well.
