so, here we are

...if any of you who know me ever here me mention out loud the phrase "my blog" or anything to that effect, just come to Philly and kick me in the groin. This is just a tool to get me writing, or at least that's what I've got to tell myself in order to maintain some semblance of dignity.

Worth mentioning: there's a bar band named "Doghouse Riley" on the web, and some dude by the same name on blogger.com. So yeah, I'm neither of those. For the record and all.

Back tomorrow, yeah?
