20121102 – put a bird on it.<\/p><\/div>\n

So, about a year ago, in November of 2011, I stopped posting to 365 sketches, a project with most of two years in its history, and some success. It was simply that I was tired, depressed, and in a very chaotic state. Now, exactly one year later, I have stopped drinking for over 6 months, lost about 90 pounds, exited and entered different, more positive relationships, and repaired many of the bridges that I had burned. In the interest of completing this project, I am going to restart the project for the final two months of 2012 to complete the 2nd series that was originally intended for 2011. I consider abandoning this project\u00a0one of the most public and private signs that I was in trouble, and I’m happy to say that it will finish strong, here. now.<\/p>\n

Of course, this sketch is in reference to the hilarious series of spoofs on life in Portland, Oregon, done in Portlandia<\/em>.<\/p>\n
