I know I’ve been away from the site for a bit, and have only managed to check in over on the Survivor’s Network every couple of days. I hope the news I recently shared about my professional life will help explain my absence, as well as explain why March might not be any different! 😉
Hopefully, once I’m settled into the new job and the new town, things will get back to normal with my online time again. In the mean time, I hope you’ll be patient with me!
I went to bed last night, and woke up this morning with a very strange feeling. It’s a feeling I haven’t had in a long time but that I know all too well. I feel very unsafe. No, it’s not war, terrorism or anything like that. Those things may make me feel unsafe in one…
Since tomorrow is the Thanksgiving holiday here in the US, and I have been writing about the idea of thankfulness each year at this time, I just wanted to take a minute to say that I’m thankful for you, the readers of this site. I’m grateful that you take the time to read, comment, send…
Over the holiday weekend, my wife and I had a very long, very interesting conversation about relationships. Not the dating, marriage kind, but the people who you spend so much energy trying to impress. It seems like everyone has someone in their life who makes them feel inadequate, someone who’s respect you want the most,…

Andy left a comment here the other day, and earlier this week I spotted a post on his blog where he linked here. (It’s a small part of a long post..) In it he says this about this site and myself: Well, this guy has been around longer than me, has quite a few links…
I have decided that it just doesn’t feel like New Year’s any more. Last year didn’t, and this year doesn’t either. Even though the new year will start in less than 11 hours, I don’t find myself with any sort of undue anticipation of the event, nor do I have any plans to do much…

Definitely understand, Mike! Best wishes for your new job and new location. Big adjustments.
You have to give your full concentration on “real life” and getting settled…..that happens to all of us bloggers at some point.
Hope your transition goes smoothly! See you when life slows down.
Mike,
Of course. Congratulations on the new job and the move. I hope that the days and weeks ahead are filled with joy.

Mike,
Congrats on the new job and new location. I am really looking forward to you getting back at your blog. I have been searching all over, and there are so few of us dealing with male sexual abuse… that we need to stick together. In the meantime, please let me know what you think of mine. http://www.masteryourhealing.com.

Thanks Erik. no worries, the blog will be here, I’m just going to be a little less consistent for a little while because time will be a bit less available as I move, but it will be back as always as we get into April.
Thanks for sharing your blog, looks like you’ve done a nice job, keep it up!
Good luck with all this new stuff, Mike. I hope it all goes well for you. I am always wishing you the best.
Right now, I’m making the rounds to say goodbye to the blogosphere after five years of blogging. I want to thank you for all your encouragement and support, for my blog and THE BLOG CARNIVAL AGAINST CHILD ABUSE. Thanks for being you and for the work that you do.
