I have to apologize for the serious lack of posts in Ye Ole Famous Last Word(e). I'd tell you that I was busy dealing with the holidays, with my cluster headaches, with desperation apartment cleanings, with finding a new job (mission accomplished!) and finding my own replacement, but really, I hit a major writer's block and all of the above are just excuses.
I tried to break the spell, truly, I did. There are 27 different drafted posts in my folder right now, of which three are maybe decent, but I kept opening them up, staring at them, typing a sentence, and then opening up Imgur in a new browser tab instead.
"Katie," I told myself. "You need to relax."
So I did what any other downtrodden urbanite would do: I dialed up my regular masseuse and requested a massage in the immediate future.
Unfortunately, Marcus, former masseuse to the Women's Olympic Soccer team, was not available.
And thus my trauma begins.
So I made an appointment at a small salon near our apartment and walked over. I sat myself next to another woman in the reception area and continued A Dance with Dragons until a very small, skinny man with a mustache came out and immediately triggered my NOPE NOPE NOPE alarm.
He started looking on the list for his next client. Not me, not me, not me, I thought.
