Are You Still Writing?

Shut the fuck up with that question. I'll never stop writing. Not until the day I die. And even then I'll be writing in my dreams while I'm chillin' up in Heaven with Edgar Allan Poe and shit like dat der. So maybe I've been slacking off considerably lately. Yes, that's true as all hell. But... shut the fuck up either way. I have a wife and two young boys at home. They get all of my time when I'm not at work and that's the way it should be. At least that's the way I feel at this point. I feel like if it doesn't involve my family I want no part of it. I'm blessed. Very lucky to have what I have in this life. If you approached me with two free nights in a luxury resort all expenses paid to Las Vegas to hang with my best friends I'd shoot down the notion quicker than you could lose a thousand bucks on a blackjack hand if you had a gambling problem. I just wanna chill with the fam.

So the next time you think about asking me if I'm still writing... press the off button on your life first.
