FIN.

remember you were driving with blanche and jubei and josh and ace to that day before memorial day bbq in westchester and ace announced to the car that he was ending his blog and you were all aghast and you couldnt understand why the most prolific and popular and cool blogger you knew was ending it and it just amounted to he didnt 'feel' it anymore and now you totally understood and your last few entries prove as much dont they and so that title up there that aint no fish arm its french and spanish for end this aint no foolin around thats right this is the last post of the blue basilica i mean on what other occasion would you ever write a title in all caps there is none yeah the bottom line is enthusiasm has left the building and you wudnt gonna scribble a post entitled im tired of blogging for now but maybe in a coupla mos ill be back and maybe you will be but it wont be here and as tempting as it was to turn the last entry into a meta-post about the blog you resisted you didnt tally up the number of times you used diced or the number of self-styled portmanteaus you came up with you didnt buy it an effing beer it wasnt taking your effing turn b.c after all it was never about those isolated thoughts even if each individual entry was it was about the compendium of them all together to show the totality of owning a human brain over the course of a coupla years and sometimes the posts were highlights of thoughts and sometimes they were just thoughts and thats how it really was and sometimes it was general and sometimes it was specific but it was always personal b.c it was always you and it covered a unique time in your life and as much as part of you thought it would be classy to keep it for your whole don you thought it actually worked better as the portrait of a chapter of the man rather than the whole man it was like writing in a diary rather than on an infinite scroll and at the end of that diary you might have liked to put a summation of what you learned so you could at least wrap it up nice and neat but no you said no you dont even know hyphen period
