Many, many times over the past years I have said to myself, “I’m going to go back to writing.” And all of those times other things came up. Family, work, computer projects, moving, jobs, friends, etc, so many other things that were, naturally, more important than this silly thing.
But I didn’t stop thinking about it. My old hosting expired and I didn’t do anything about it. Someone bought my old domain (what an asshole!) and I can get it back for a princely sum, apparently. But ha, I am smarter than that! I will get A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DOMAIN that has a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT NAME!
As you can see, it’s not much different than the old one. Just minus one letter. If that’s what keeps me from having to fork over $4500 (yes, that’s the amount the domain overlords want for it) then they can keep it.
But so much has happened since I left.
A tyrant was in power when I left, and a tyrant is in power again. And he’s more of an asshole this time than last time.
So much has happened, and my brain has been on pause. Between everything (mentioned in the first paragraph) and politics (it’d be nice to go an entire day without having someone’s name or voice shoved at me), I’ve got other thoughts.
To quote the late great Rob Reiner –
But hey, enough of my yakkin’, what ya say, let’s boogie!
