Aaaand - We're Back!

You know how life just has that funny way of blindsiding you? One day you're going along just fine; good people in your life, good job, you know - everything is going well. While you're in the midst of it, you don't even notice it. Sure, maybe you're one of those people who live consciously, savoring the good times and even appreciating the bad times because you know it will just make the halcyon days even sweeter! I'm kinda like that - but not entirely. I can appreciate what a great life I have, but I tend to muddle when things are going badly... but I wander here.

The truth is, nothing serious, nothing bad or grand happened. I haven't posted anything in a long time because:

1. I changed jobs, and much like the high school kid that forsakes all his friends because he has a new girlfriend, I did that with this job change. I got so into it that all but the necessities fell by the wayside. But. All work and no writing...

2. I forgot my password. I used to try to use the same password for all my accounts, but over the years, well - that fell by the wayside too. So when it came time to start writing again, it was a major task to get into my account. I forgot the answer to my security question even! The PDA I once-upon-a-time used to store all that info went by the wayside too (in favor of my new favorite gadget, Blackberry Curve).

Hmm, I'm detecting a pattern - stuff falls by the wayside.

And finally,
3. I had writer's block. OK not really, but it feels kinda cool to say that.

So, I'm back. For now. I suppose until something else sends all the non-necessities to to the wayside. Wonder where the wayside is - can you imagine all the cool stuff that can be found there?
