End of the Road

Vol. 1 Issue 43

"But the needle can sometimes go astray, putting the drug into the spinal fluid or arteries, causing nerve damage, hemorrhages and death to nerves by depriving them of oxygen. Many doctors use imaging and fluorescent dye to position the needle, but even that technique is not foolproof. Another complication is arachnoiditis, an inflammation of a membrane surrounding the nerves of the spinal cord that is marked by pain, nerve damage and bowel and bladder dysfunction." -NY TIMES

And it doesn’t feel too hot either. Over the past three weeks I have had exactly four needles inserted directly into my spine. Although these experiences bring to mind plenty of ideas for this week’s post, the thought of drudging up any more personal experiences about my health and sanity is just too overwhelming. I’m going to avert the hemorrhaging and cerebral nerve damage and declare it official: Fair readers, October is just too far away. This is the end of the road for this blog.

But I am starting fresh with a new film blog. I’ve already written a couple reviews which I will post immediately. I hope to review more than one film a week so my posts will be shorter, more frequent, and more pertinent to an actual topic. The goal is get my blog intertwined with some other interesting film blogs and websites, something I failed to do with this blog. As a successful film blogger I will then abuse my power to promote myself as a screenwriter and make a million dollars off my screenplay Omophagia.

Thank you to everyone who listened to what I had to say over the past ten months. Onward, we shall (hopefully) endure.
