I've been a very bad blogger. I don't know why I haven't been able to make myself write here. I've had a new post window open many times. I know my stand to not be negative here anymore is one reason I didn't post as often and I was badly burned-out on blogging after doing all of that sponsored crap, but I've had a lot of good things happen that I can't seem to get in writing, either. Maybe my friend Laura is right — Twitter and Facebook are ruining blogging. I realized I need to stop writing on those as much and start writing here more. I use my blog not only as a vehicle to spread news to friends and family, but as an archive of my life. More than once lately, I've gone back to the blog to see when something happened only to find that I hadn't blogged it. Dang, that is so frustrating. I'm sure I wrote about them on either Facebook or Twitter, but that stuff is not archived by me, so eventually that will all be lost. I'm sure those sites won't archive my posts indefinitely. Instead of doing a big catch-up post, I am going to be backdating a few posts as if they had just happened. I'm going to be going back through Twitter & Facebook and see what I've left out here. From here on forward, expect more posting. I've really missed writing here.
