I really loved this silly little blog for a time. And as silly as cliche's are, I really wanted to say peace out instead of just disappearing off somewhere else. You see OEF was here before Friendster, Myspace, Facebook, Twitter.. It was this happy retreat where I could share my life. Fast forward to present: there are too many ways to share and like that guy in college.. I am now "the 30 year old". People are more single serve cones and like their life experiences in 140 characters or less.
I'm still too lazy to communicate the old fashioned way - i.e. the phone. I still see Hench and G in cyberspace (everyday) and occasionally in real life. That being said - I started this blog with a group and it feels odd to jabber on here in a solo capacity. I came to this conclusion oddly enough watching the Temptations concert at Town Point Park, and then felt robbed when I found out it was only one member of the Temptations. I shivered thinking: OEF featuring Leslie...or myself standing by the microphone with two empty mikes by my side. It's the same old song, but a different meaning since you've been gone..
You can still find me over in Lavaponyland and on Facebook and I'm going to eventually start my own solo writing blog when the time permits. It'll probably be lists of things I like or song lyrics..or lists of things I f*kn hate! Or maybe more of the same.
It's been real y'all.

Dearest Paxton,
Everyonceinawhile I'll think about writing something on this old blog. And then I start thinking how a nap sounds like such a better idea. And that's been happening for 2+ years now.
You're right though. When we started OEF, iPhones didn't exist. That's old as crap. And so are we. We have (more) grown-up jobs and grad school and babies (well, one anywayz).
But I can't bring myself to kill OEF! Maybe we can reboot and become the anti-Facebook, because I farging hate Facebook with the fire of 10,000 suns. I suppose we could talk about this on the phone. Or a google plus hangout.
I love this because you and G both referenced something in your posts that probably nobody else EVER would get. Even if it was accidental. (Lpax = 30 year old. G = Everyonceinawhile) I miss college.
