Ok, so nothing has been happening here for ages... There are some good reasons, and some lame reasons... What they are does not matter in the least... I've had any number of things in my head for a while that I thought about posting, but I just didn't... There are going to be some changes here... First, I've ditched my blogroll, with the exception of the Mu Nu list... Odds are you aren't going to see any cross links posted here again... I'm doing that to get myself away from what started to become a burden. I obsessed over hit counts, trackbacks, and my TTLB ranking in the past, and that was a problem for me... I worried about making sure there was "quality" content, and seemed to stop worrying about just blogging for the sake of blogging... It's not about quality, its supposed to be about what is in my head, and folks, at most times, that doesn't fall in to the quality category... With few exceptions, I've stopped reading other blogs, and haven't posted a comment in ages... I had to just get away from the culture for a while so I could get my head back to where it was when I started out over at Blog-City ages ago... I wanted so much to get my anonymity back, that I was toying with the idea of going back over there and starting out fresh with a new name, and no traffic... I came to the conclusion that, 1) I get no traffic here now, and that's just fine, and 2) at some point I'd be pretty easily identifiable again if anyone that came here stopped over there... and 3) I suspect that the people that I know around here, have stopped looking at this page, as they figure it's now abandoned... That was one of my major issues really... It's hard to vent about your surroundings and circle of people, when they are reading what you're posting... Some times, its just easier to scream at the wind than talk to your friends, and that's what I started blogging for... If that made interesting reads, that's fine, but if it doesn't now, that's just fine too...
And now for the disclaimer... If you know me from reality, rather than just a name on a blog, move along please, this isn't really intended for you... It really isn't personal against anyone, I just need someplace that I can work out the crap in my head, effectively out loud, but with nobody listening...
Thanks...
