Blegging; Beautification

As you may have gathered, Amanda and I have fallen on some difficult times recently. In December, I lost my job, as did everyone else who worked with me on it. We had already done all our holiday shopping before I got the news, unfortunately. In addition, it looks like I will have a hard time qualifying for unemployment insurance, due to the funky way my ex-employer had me on the books.

So if you’ve enjoyed this blog, or if you’ve enjoyed the pleasure of my company at some point, or if you haven’t enjoyed either but are just a nice person, it would be terrific of you to hit the tip jar to your left and send a donation my way. I do spend quite a bit of time working on the blog, and a financial incentive to do so would be incredibly helpful at this point in time. Thanks in advance for whatever support you’re able to lend.

But as I’m reluctant to beg without offering anything in return, I’m going to try and post something beautiful for you: Here are the lyrics to a new favorite song of mine. Enjoy, and thanks again.

So it’s grey, well so are my favorite cities

And we have, we have all the time in the world here

We’ll just stay tucked in the shade and our eyes they can’t be blinded

We’ll just stay tucked in the shade

So it’s grey, well so are my favorite cities

And the sky on such a memorable night

And we have, we have all the time in the world here

That’s a lie, that’s a lie

–Azure Ray, “Favorite Cities”
