five years too many - haha

Hi there.

I knew this day was going to come sooner or later.

We went from here

6.2.2003
Countdown to extasy is a lie.
I'm not excited about my reunion.

not in the least.

That's why I decided to start this blog.

Maybe it'll be more beneficial than drowning in beer.

to here http://pathtoproduction.blogspot.com/ in only five years.

i started a blog five years ago due to a neurosis surrounding my 20 year high school reunion. I wasn't really neurotic about getting old. It was more a fear or worry that I would never measure up to my own expectations. It was a worry that I hadn't done anything with my life that I felt was important. And it was worry that maybe I had wasted too much time. That I hadn't made the right choices.

That worry is in the past. Through the course of five years, I've discussed the worry. Confirmed it. Dismissed it. Denounced it. Embraced it and finally, got over it. It went away.

Not having that worry has freed me up to embark on some pretty exciting shit. The move to the Jolly is well underway. I'm producing a play in New York and I'm not even a theater geek. I'm writing, really writing, not a blog but stories, for stage, page, and screen.

Don't know if I would have got here without writing it out on theblog. Not sure if I would have arrived if I hadn't met the people I did along the way.

With all that said, I feel like it's time for this incarnation of Hell's Half Acre to disappear. I mean go away. As in deletion. It's time to start fresh. Fresh and clean and beige friendly (and by beige friendly, I just mean that I want to be able to write about shit that won't look crappy in a personnel record and if someone stumbled upon a blog post I wouldn't be embarrassed.)

So stay tuned if you're so inclined. I'll be around in the ether and I'll leave a forwarding address but for now, this is krixfort, signing out from HHA.

Cheers from your friend,
Kris

 

PS definitely look less manaical in the baby pic. What's up with that?
