Absolutely Nothing Has Happened Since 2009.


Now you and i both know that's a bald-faced lie.  The thing is, now that i've had time to peruse those 2009-08 posts I know why I walked away from here and didn't look back for 5 years.  Who wants to read all that political/religious/philosophical crap?  Being a woman of excellent literary taste I just couldn't stand the sound of my own voice for even one more day. So.  I will spare you the intense pain of ploughing through that rubbish, ok?  Just ignore it, it's not worth your time.  Maybe I will just re-post the really (to me) good ones, the personal ones, the real ones, the funny ones and delete or secret-file the insanely ponderous and wordy political and religious rants.

If you want to read anything, read The Junkyard Of My Mind.  Better, more personal.  Mostly.  The rest of it - not so much.  I don't wike it.

But if I want to stay true to my blogger self, it's better for it all to stay out there as a permanent lesson on what not to do.

Bluster and over the top rhetoric aside, it was passionless.  It's so easy to divert one's attention to the bigger issues of the world we have no control over, when the personal, private issues we do (or should) have control over become a) heartbreakingly painful to contemplate or b) intensely boring.

Here's the deal.  Even old haggard worn-out crones like me can learn a thing or two along the way.  And I know I can do better.  Let me try.

Dedicated with affection to Bob who will never see it,  and with regret to Roz who will never see it but for a completely different reason.
