Yes, I know: I haven’t blogged in many weeks. I’m not sure why that it is. Suddenly blogging seemed so 2000, you know? Everyone’s all Twittering, which is infinitely easier (140 characters? Pffft…) or hanging out on Facebook (which has always been my real forte’, am I right, kids?)
And here I was slaving away all day over a hot Mac keyboard, sharing occasional personal anecdotes, linking to web sites, blogs, news articles, and videos. Uploading pictures. What was the point? There was no point. I just like to share.
Then some life shifts happened, I got busier, and I wasn’t sure if anyone cared about the blog. I know, I know, the blog gets hits like crazy — still over 1,000 a day even without any action on my part –but how much of that is random Google searches and serendipity? I mean, I’M NOT EVEN UPDATING THIS THING.
Lately, I’ve received several emails, Facebook messages, comments and actual real life face-to-face conversational queries:
My friend Dustin and I wrote this kicky insider guide to secret spots and out-of-the-way cafes to feed your vegan face when you visit the national’s capitol. And do come visit, because it’s boring here without you.
From a long series wherein my mother took a picture of me every day before school. As my Facebook friends say, British Invasion rockers would have killed for that hair.
Adorable, right? Now you understand why I later chastised my mother for never making me a child star.
