• Long Time

  First, I should note I put up a post for those on my ‘list’- and for those who consider me someone they read regularly and are interested in keeping up with, feel free to let me know and I’ll toss a coin and see if it is heads or tails.

  I suppose I’ve gone through yet another (I’ve been on Xanga since, woah, 1999 or something? maybe 2000 or 2001) spurts of inactivity where I just loose the energy or drive to use xanga. Usually it is because I don’t know if it’s being read, or if there is much interest or point, etc. I got really involved in facebook for a while, but that kind of wore off too for the same reason. I’m sure if there are folks who want to keep up, they are few enough that I’d enjoy writing them their own personal letter instead. *laughs* And if they don’t want that? Well, I dare to say that’s a problem with the new age of blogs and internet- the lack of social connection it encourages. Wanting to know what’s going on in someone’s life without being bothered to say something to do them, to ask, or to respond back… well, that’s probably another reason I’ve given the blog a rest. And perhaps the sad thing is only two people asked how I was. Or perhaps a good thing in some ways- since I’ve been silent in the past and nobody said anything at all.

  Even online friends make an impact, especially when you’re going through a point where all of your friends (outside family) are online. So, feel free to say hello, hi, and for those who asked how I am or sent a note- thank you! This blog entry is for you!

  Of course, due to the fact most of what I have to say is more personal than I’d like broadcast out randomly (I’ve paid serious consequences for making that mistake too many times), you’ll have to be on my protected list to hear more.

  Sincerely,
  Patrick
