my life got flipped turned upside down and I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there, I'll tell you how my life kinda fell apart, which explains the lack of blog updates for the last seven months...

Somehow, I don't think I'm gonna be as successful as Will Smith with that line. Just doesn't roll off the tongue.

In any case, back in Feb, my relationship with my partner took a serious downer, and I ended up moving out unexpectedly fast. Like....I had half an hour to pack a bag and leave. I don't really want to get into massive detail, but suffice to say that I didn't have stable internet for a couple of months until I moved into the new place. I also had to deal with a lot of emotional stuff that I had to deal with. Subsequent to that, I went through a tough phase at work, with restructuring and threats of redundancies. All in all, not a great time to be blogging. Or most things, in fact. I lost a lot of time on the clan stuff I was doing, which didn't help. I withdrew from a lot of things and lost contact with some people. My blog died, as you may have noticed, and I started getting angry about a lot of stuff.

I'm not gonna deny it, I was handling my anger very badly, and that's something I've been working on recently. My anger at my ex rather got on top of me and I spent a long time hating. Sometimes her, sometimes just everything. Thankfully I've managed to work that through and I don't have those flashes of hate so often. I'm not gonna lie and say I'm fine. But I'm recovering.

So why am I putting this up?

Honestly, it's because I want to start blogging again, and sharing my journey through the levels of esports and hopefully to a point where I can make it more a part of my life than it is now. That means I need to write, and one of the first things that came to mind was "Where the hell have I been all this time?" I figured someone was going to ask, and it's as good a subject to start with as any, so here it is.

The intention is, from this point, to write at least one blog entry a week, but in practice, I'm gonna blog about a wide range of things, possibly one entry a day, depending on how I'm feeling about stuff, and whether anything comment worthy happens.

That said, for now, I'm going to bed. Turns out it's late, and I have a D&D game to run tomorrow.

Thanks for reading and watch this space....

find a good way to release the anger. oftentimes, it's impossible to refrain from getting angry (although that's also something you can work on), so the best way to deal with it is to focus your energy on something else. writing a blog is certainly one good way. keep it up.

I have and sometimes still am experiencing what ur going through. Best way is just KCCO, fuk it and go on... mostly a little sparkle of hope does the trick (even if u know it is a trick).

KCCO bro!

Ieatkids5 - Thanks. I've been trying several things to deal with the rage, but I hadn't considered the blog as a way to do that. Will definitely give it a try

Govie - It took me a moment to remember what KCCO was. Not sure I can call myself British anymore...

Oh well..

That said, I'll be doing it, either that or Keep calm and Ladder like a boss

find something that you are happy with and focus on that, or just go about doing what you want to do everything else should just fall into place. GLHF

Forevernoob - That's the plan. I'm really enjoying the casting thing so while I have a regular job to keep the bills paid, I can do the things that I love the rest of the time.

Catherine - Thanks for the support.

MarlieChurphy - Honestly, it died slowly, and I was too oblivious to notice that things had gone bad until far too late. Didn't make it feel any better, but that's why they say hindsight is 20:20...
