A Note Concerning the Following

Hello, dear friends. I apologize for the massive delay in posting anything. For some reason or other, it has been difficult to sit down and write for any long period of time, so what you see before you is the product of many choppy sessions and attempts. Please forgive the incongruity if there is any. Also, this mother is long, so if you're going to read it, please allow yourself a good half an hour. Thank you for your kindness and attention. I'm gonna go and get me a jelly donut. Cheers.
