Regular readers of this blog have noticed that I am hard up for some loving. I'm aware of this because a few regular readers have actually mentioned it to me. (Hi, mom!) I mean, shit, <i>casual</i> readers only have to scan the first few posts on this page to realize that "it's been a long time for me."
