start making sense...

I've always tried to keep this blog as honest as possible.  Sure I'm snarky and enjoy making thinly veiled references and inside jokes for my friends and loved ones.  Yes I may have a bit of a dramatic bent.  Sure I may oooh and ahhh over things that others find mediocre.  But all of that is still honest.  I've tried to keep this page as true to myself as possible.

Because of that. Because of the importance of that to me I haven't been posting often at all.  I don't have writers block.  I haven't run out of things to talk about.  I've been writing almost constantly actually... secreting it away to a place it will never see the light of day in an attempt to keep the peace.  To retain a sense of equilibrium.  But mostly, to maintain some privacy for K, Mike and I in what has been a difficult time.

There's no good way to phrase it.  To soften it.  To make it any more or less better or worse than it is.  Mike and I are divorcing.

I'm not going to get into the why.  I will tell you that our daughter, our beautiful amazing phenomenal daughter knows.  Our families have been informed. I haven't made an effort to contact individual friends to let them know because as much as I don't want them to be caught off guard... this is about us and I'm doing what I can do.  Focusing on making sure that K and I, and Mike as well, get through this.

For me?  This is very private.  I can stand whispers.  I can stand people questioning behind my back.  I can let people wonder and discuss as long as they don't involve me.  Mike and I are not the same that way.  He just needs to get it out there.  To have the knowledge available.  And so it's for him that I'm writing this.

He and I have had a life together for the last 10 years.  Not just as parents and husband & wife, but also working together on several podcasts and other productions.  The only part of our union that is currently ending is our marriage.  We'll continue to be parents to K and we will continue to produce our shows both in studio and at events.  To this point we've been able to remain friends and we both want very much for that to continue.
