I’ve been really neglectful of this blog lately but I can’t help it.  I recently (in the last few weeks) started a new job.  I’m in a leadership role within the operations side of a very large online retailer (you can probably guess which one) and I had to go out of state for orientation, then train on the floor to learn what the associates experience each day.  Now I’m finally beginning to train in my actual role, but when I get home from work, I’m exhausted.  Add to that the fact that we’re moving on Saturday morning and you can see that… well… everything has had to take a backseat.  That being said, I spoiled myself last Friday and bought a new MacBook Pro.  Suddenly, my long-dead writing muse decided to show up again.  (I personally think my muse is a Macwhore.  In the 14 months I didn’t have one, I barely wrote.  Buy a new Mac and BAM – INSPIRATION!)  So now I’m trying to sneak in snippets of writing time, even though all I feel like doing is collapsing into my bed.  Speaking of which, I’m about to do that now…
