This friend of mine, she has a really odd way of looking at the world.
Let me explain. Or better yet, let me resort to the much famed conversation excerpt.

There aren’t many reasons why I’ve been silent, there’s just one. I’ve been swamped.
I cannot believe how far behind I’ve fallen terms of stuff I need to get done but haven’t, […]

I’ve been having difficulty putting this in words, and what you’re reading right now is probably the fourth rewrite. Unfortunately for you, that doesn’t translate to this entry being any better than the previous attempts.
