Hi, kids!
So I'm making my way back into the blog-o-sphere. It's been awhile. I started blogging initially to try and present myself in a more open and cohesive fashion, and it was a great way to exercise some writing muscles while keeping the near-and-dear a little nearer. I loved it. I found it freeing. I found it relaxing. I found it taxing, and scary, and strenuous, and sweet.
Then I got tired. I got a little weary, too. I needed some cyber-space, if you will. Strange to say, I mean, it's the INTERNET, C., how does that possibly crowd a person? Yet it did, and I pulled back, focused on my non-cyber pursuits (work, school, dating, creativity, friends, pets, events and non-events). As of late, though, I've been itching to make my way back to it. Touch base via this medium and stretch the muscles of mind and hand once more. That said, my perspective is a bit different now. I'm not willing to put my thoughts out there for any random internet-loper to stumble across. I want to discuss more personal matters without fear that doing so will interfere somehow with my professional life, and I've found that, a few years and some life-lessions later, I feel in myself more free and more coherent than I did when I first dipped my toe in the blogging pool. So instead of presenting a tightly edited version of me to the world, I'm looking to loosen up a bit but in front of a more select audience.
If you are looking to remain a "A Work in Progress..." reader, know that I will be making this a private blog soon. I'm still figuring out how that works-do I send invites to be accepted, or just wait for you guys to message me? I'll keep you posted, trusted readers. Take it easy, or just take it any way you can get it! *wink*
