And we're back!

So I toyed with the idea of ditching this blog and not having one at all but then I thought, nope, I love a blog and this one has a great name. I'm keeping it. I am feeling a bit more private than usual about the current situation, not sure why, bu the need to write is greater than the need for privacy. So here goes.

So that Tate Update for the last couple of months is as follows:

• I have my own house and it's extremely cute and I love it.
• The Arms Reach Discography is out and sitting in a box in my cupboard. Hmmmmm.
• I have a new friend who lives next door. His name is Ross and he is very sweet but lives alone and walks his two cats on a leash. He brings me excessive gifts including CD's, DVDs, an address book with a picture of his dead mother in it, a pen, vegetables and the like. He is very lonely and is a good reminder to me to not push people away for the rest of my life or I will end up like him.
• My brother is overseas with his mate and is currently being an obnoxious straight edge hardcore kid.
• My finances are looking up for the first time in ages! Fuck that's a great feeling.

There's a fair bit happening at the moment and I am feeling strangely calm with a ripple of manic energy that constantly runs through me. The fire is starting to come back to flame after some time of being nothing more than a tiny glow deep in the dark embers of my soul. Ha! Sounds like a bad cock-rock lyric. But it's true.
