It's hard to believe nearly two years have passed since posting the last entry, here. People use words like "rollercoaster" to sugar-coat and uptalk and fauxite what often ends up being countless hours of cold, numb grinding. But I did it. I launched what I set out to launch, skinless teeth and all. Dead broke and freshly-accomplished I had little choice but to put my newborn away and find a way to pay the rent. I wonder if mothers ever feel repulsed the moment that cord gets cut. Regardless, I needed the break away from mine. (Perhaps cellmate is the better parallel.)
They say that idiocy is next to godliness, and so I took a job at a pressurized and unstable Seattle startup. Where will I work? Wherever I can, right now.
More to the point of this resurrection: I'm fed up with the Facebooks and need a general outlet in which to get it out. There's but a single silent link leading people here, allowing the relative anonymity of this blog to give me a voice without the breadcrumbs.
I welcome ideas for how to circle the wagons a la the LJs of yore without having it all sold out from under you. Blogger might not be the best venue for such a thing. Perhaps these handful of entries are best left as a tiny time capsule, a marker of a journey that will ultimately outlive me.
In any case, I miss writing.
