If you clicked on this link thinking that I’ve just come out as gay, then spoiler alert: I didn’t. You’ve just been click baited, sucker!

I did, however, recently come out as separated which is worse. Being gay would be so much more fun and ironically, would probably get me way more of thems ladies the singles keep talking about. That said, outing myself and making the separation public takes a lot of the weight off my shoulders in respect to my MDB presence. Since January, it’s been hard to feel genuine and like myself when posting. Some of the hard core followers might even have noticed that the quality of posting had gone down quite a bit. I noticed, but writing about the separation was cathartic and as a result, I feel like I can be a little more like myself when I post.

So I'm out dis closet and it’s time to make the best of it. There are a lot of projects I’ve had waiting in the wings that wouldn’t have made a lot of sense in the context that the Mad Wife and I were still together, so here are a few blog posts you might expect to see in the near future:

Holy shit, I got a cat!
I am now a wood working god among men
Embracing new hobbies: A return to day drinking
And the fucked up world of online dating

There will be more posts which will hopefully include this damn gluten free rage post I’ve had sitting half way completed since last year. I’d also like to start opening up the blog to the occasional guest contributor. I love to write and even more than that, I love to engage with my community. You guys and gals are awesome and you make pursuing this blog a lot of fun.

Oh, and stay tuned for a real live website! MDB is going full 2017 on your asses once I can secure the developer and if I can pool in enough capital I might even begin adding some god damn merchandise. Mad Dad stickers? Fuck yes, please.
