Three Hundred Seventeenth Entry

It has been nearly 6 months since my last blog entry. This is probably the first time I've logged onto blogger in that time. Did google buy blogger.com? I think they are slowly taking over the world.

To all of you that have wondered what happened to me (all 2 of you know who you are), nothing has happened to me. I've been living life and doing stuff that wasn't blogging. I'm sick right now, so I find myself with the time to blog. Blog is a funny word. Is it even a word?

A lot of stuff has happened. A lot of stuff that reassures me that I am alive and reminds me that I am not watching a reality show with me as a character. It has been an emotionally taxing and tiring 6 months and I'm definitely ready for a vacation. Dead people have it so easy.

Instead of a laundry list of things that have happened in the last six months, how about I don't write about any of it? It doesn't really matter. All that matters is that it happened, the particulars are of no consequence. From this point on, I'll write about what happens. I just don't want to have to search the abyss of my brain for the events of my recent history.

It may come as a surprise to most of you that I've kept two other blogs. One a public one, Quest, which most people know about, and the other one a private one, Truth, that noone knows about. I haven't been a faithful writer in those blogs either. I read Truth tonight for the first time in over a year. It pained me to read it. The rantings of a hopeless romantic, at least in print. I deleted both of them. They outlasted their usefulness. It was a little sad to erase Truth. Dredged up and brought to surface feelings that I thought were buried, but realized never really went away. They were just ignored for the sake of all involved. Gone. It's OK, I guess. I'll never forget the three loves of my life. I can just forget the details surrounding them.

So before I start to squirt tears like a chick, I'd like to propose a virtual toast! To my one and only blog. You have been here always, ready for my attention. May my writings in you be fast and true! Salute!
