I apologize on behalf of all of us for the lame state of things here on GritCity. Yes, the mood around here has been somewhat hectic and depressing at times, but we're looking for a way out of this funk.
But first, let's submerse ourselves in the funk as much as possible to get it out of our systems. I found this great time-lapse video of the Tacoma waterfront on YouTube. It's a minute of semi-emo zen that I need to indulge in before I can properly write more posts full of frivolous non-news.
Alright, Tacoma, I feel better. What's going on out there?

They may be the only four bloggers in the City of Tacoma that have not been to a chalk off. A forbidden territory?
NIN, oh the memories of a better time here on GritCity.'
Laura & Kelly, I am glad you two are not dead or unemployed!!
Well, as I blogged about the other day (that's right Gritsters, I had to start my own FeedTacoma blog because of the lack of activity here) about how I am moving away from the North End after almost my entire 35 year life, and am moving to the South End near 72nd and Pac Ave. Kinda scary to move away from the part of town that I know and love so much. But I am spreading my Gritty Wings and expanding my Gritty Horizon...wish me luck! I still however work in downtown...so I am still in the hub of the T-Town action.

Sitting round feeling far away.
Perhaps we haven't held up our end as regular commenters(?). Yes, Cole was definitely at a chalk-off. and Cole, Kim, and a very content Jameson were recently spotted at PSP. One thing that bugs, me: We need to get GC a higher ranking on the blog pull-down menu.
I feel better now. I think. It was starting to feel like the last episode of MTM.* (I know; look who's talking.)
* Ask your parents

It's been a busy summer. It feels good to post here again. I missed you guys.
You have to get out of that air conditioned fortress you folks are hunkered down in to the city if you are going to gather any "content" to post on.
Give it a shot.
