No, I haven't posted a blog in a long time. In fact, this year has been pretty pathetic when it comes to both quantity and quality of blogs. The truth is, I've just been really busy. So busy, in fact, that I've been able to list the top 72 reasons I haven't been blogging so that you can get a better idea of just how complicated my life is. If you don't understand after reading this list, then I'm afraid you never will.
