	: 13:27 : For A Long Time I Used To Write A Blog
	It's official. The blog/journal/etc is going on sabbatical. Possibly, likely, it will turn into early retirement. I just haven't had it in me to do much here anymore. It's easy to to blame it on the recently acquired fulltime writing gig, but really I haven't been that involved in it for awhile now. I'm keeping the archives up. And the whole thing will stay in tact since I don't have the heart to redesign it as a closed book or whatever. It's, like, embalmed. For her pleasure. Meanwhile, the new home page. Meanwhile I'll be writing here. Meanwhile I'll be accepting freelance writing and web work. Meanwhile the nyc summer marches on. Meanwhile I'll be cleaning my kitchen. The last one : : The Scoop The next one : : I Miss The People Most
