I've been blogging off and on (mostly on) since 2005. No, it hasn't all been here on The Confusing Middle or hosted by the good people at the WordPress.

Stephen King’s Community
Well, it was bound to happen. And I've done it again. I had another really bizarre dream. Only this time I wasn't blissfully married to Jennifer Aniston.
