Update and travels

Sorry for the lack of updates around here. I’ve been busy and preoccupied with other things, mostly just trying to put one foot in front of the other. I’ve got all sorts of things I want to talk about but just don’t have the energy to do so. Justin sums up what it’s like sometimes for those of us who have been putting their lives online for awhile now…the ways in which we can paint ourselves into corners using this still-new social platform without realizing it until it’s too late. Justin pours much more of his life onto his site than I do mine, but enough of me is here that his video made me cry about my own experiences a bit.

Anyway, I hope things will be returning to normal around here soon…the remaindered links should continue as usual (more or less) since they’re pretty easy to do. In the meantime, I’m going to be in London at the end of the month for a few days, an attempt to change my perspective a bit and get reamed by the exchange rate in the process. I’m considering a trip to SXSW in March. I haven’t been for a couple years and it would be nice to see everyone again (and hopefully not get food poisoning this time). I’m also thinking about going to Thailand in March (which may kill the SXSW trip). My dad is there & familiar with the area and I’ve only heard good things the country. But we’ll see.
