I owe you better
Jan 20th, 2010 Posted in General | one comment »This tiny post is just to say that I owe you better… than a whiny paragraph or two. A real blog post is forming in my mind, but it’s taking its time, just as all of my equilibrium is taking its ever-lovin’ time to manifest itself once more.

Why my blog has been asleep
Jan 12th, 2010 Posted in General | one comment »Because I have been in a state of attempted concatenation for the past four months.

Well, no email, nothing happening on the web, everybody either asleep or gone off to work… Maybe it’s time for another blog post?
I’m writing this from the Perche, at 6:30 or so in the morning. Huh? you may ask. Don’t, it’s boring. Just insomnia, thinking about all of the o-so-icky administrative stuff I have to [...]
