All work and no play makes Mack something-something…
Sorry I’ve been a little out-of-pocket as of late.
If I told you how crazy-hectic things have been at work, you wouldn’t believe me or wouldn’t care, so I’ve just said nothing at all.
And did I mention “new baby time” is coming down to the wire?
Yeah, there’s been a lot of crap. In fact, there’s been so much of it I can declare that I’ve actually seen the crap squat and make more crap of its own.
But that’s the way it goes in the ad jungle. Keep checking back. I promise I’ll be able to devote more time to witty repartee and juicy ad jungle tidbits one of these days.
Like when I retire.

I’d guest-blog for you. But it comes out less witty and juicy, more bitter and wise-assy.
And the new baby is going to wreak havoc on your ability to blog regularly for weeks. Months.
But that’s good.
I mean for you.
Not for us.
See? I suck at this stuff.

What?… are you also waiting for a new baby?!

Juan Carlos,
Yes, we’re awaiting the arrival of a baby girl, due to make an appearance sometime between October 28 and November 2 (though, because of her size, we fully expect her to come early).
James,
Thanks for the offer. Bitter and wise-assy may match up perfectly with my state of mind in a few weeks.

Congrats man. Don’t worry about us - we’ll just talk trash in the comment boxes while you are busy. October 12th is a great day for a baby girl.
