2 years and 20 days later

Strange to think that it's been over two years since I've had anything to say here. I don't remember making a conscious effort to stop blogging, it just seemed to trail off. Maybe it was just replaced by other things in my life that I found more important. It's perfectly natural to expect that things will change in time, so why am I back here now?

At first I thought about starting a new blog. After so long I thought that this place was done and finished, a testament to someone that I used to be, left lost between the 1's and 0's in some vain sense of obligation to posterity. In fact I did start a new one, three of them to be honest. Well, I got as far as giving them a title and then trying to write a first post. With each new attempt I found that what I was really looking for wasn't something new, it was the same thing that drew me here in the first place. If you asked me to define or explain it I'm not sure that I'd be able to do it. It's just a feeling.

Isn't that what this place has always been to some extent.  There's never really been a coherent story line or even a loosely established form of chaotic prose. Sure at time it may have seemed that way but really in the end it's just a feeling.

(I just accidentally closed the window I'm composing this in and thought all was lost. Thank you Google for preserving text in recovered windows.)

When I started this blog over 6 years ago now I posed the question "What is Desomnia in Drull?" I'm still not really sure how to answer that any better now than I did then, but I'm glad it's still here.

I can't help but wonder, is anyone still out there? If you are I'd love to be able to tell you what to expect, but I'm not sure yet. I have been writing more lately, so that's probably what you'll see most of for now. There's sure to be the random musings of the past as well. It wouldn't be the same without it.
