Tongue-Tied
It's daunting. That big white box waiting to be filled with text. The blinking cursor waiting for some reason to dance across the screen. You sit there and wait and think maybe this time something will come out. Then the phone rings, a coworker stops by, you get a craving for lemon chess pie, or you just need to get one more kill to finish that really hard quest. And you're off again ...
Yes, I've neglected this space for quite awhile. It wasn't intentional, really - it just happened. Every once in awhile, I'd glance over and notice the cobwebs, the dust, and think, "Hey, I should really do something about that." And for a short moment I'd ponder what to say, what to do. And then I'd find some other more pressing thing to do.
In the meantime, life has happened. Time has flown by and plans for the future have been replaced by memories. I've moved to an apartment in the city, within walking distance of a myriad restaurants, shops, museums, parks, and other distractions. I've designed more websites and publications at work. I've met new friend and seen old friends move away. I've grown a beard, shaved it off, and grown it again.
Am I back? Maybe. I still like this little place, I think it has potential, and I do want to visit it more often. I just don't want to promise anything ... in the meantime, I'll see what I can do about these cobwebs and that strange musty smell.
