revolutions 2010

if i had gotten pregnant on the day i started this blog, which was also the last day i wrote a blog, i would be waddling around with an almost fully-baked baby in my belly, and then i REALLY would've had something to write about. but i am luckily without child, and this blog went ignored and abandoned. until today.

why?

did i think of you sometimes, abandoned blog? certainly. as much as it sounds like a Stupid White Person Problem, i missed blogging. or i guess i should say writing. i used to write all the time, blogs and poems and stories. it was therapeutic. it made my brain...work...better. so it was probably easier and more interesting to talk to me then, too.

so that's one reason.

also, i was reading yes and yes the other day, and sarah von (who is one of the most positive and lovely people on the internet) asked her readers to post what they were looking forward to in 2010.

and man, i tried, but i couldn't think of anything. there was nothing i was looking forward to in the year ahead. and that is just completely unacceptable.

so the wheels are turning. i have some ideas. but i decided to start writing again, not because i think this will be interesting to anyone other than myself, but i have been known to abandon projects (see the timestamp of the last entry) and i find that i work better when people are holding me accountable (even if those people are Me and The Internet).

also, my best friend told me to.

so let's get started on this adventure, shall we?


(or maybe i'll see you in eight months.)
