It’s hard to believe, sometimes, how much time goes by between one post and the next. It’s even harder to believe when I know, for a fact, that I have five unfinished drafts of posts that I stayed up late nights battering out on my keyboard.

I would like to graciously thank all the nice folks who have linked me here, there and everywhere. Now that people are actually reading, and my heart’s all in here, and well I’m full of all kinds of blather, it occurs to me: while my manifesto is, perhaps, a statement of personal goals and a commitment not to wuss out, it’s not exactly a guiding document on content.
