I haven’t been writing much. For a while. And I’ve been busy, but I’ve been not-busy too. I just haven’t feel any enthusiasm. There’s intimidation there, too, balancing the desire to tell the world a story. I’ve been reading through a couple technical blogs (when it’s all about programming (or any one topic), is it a blog or a column?) at work lately, and I came across this good nudge:

And that’s exactly why people who are afraid they can’t write should be blogging. It’s like exercise. No matter how out of shape you are, if you exercise a few times a week, you’ll inevitably get fitter. And if you write a small blog entry a few times every week, you’re bound to become a better writer. If you’re not writing because you’re intimidated by writing, well, you’re likely to stay that way forever.
Jeff Atwood

And neither is my desire just to entertain the world, it’s to stay in contact with you. I know the feeling of saying “Hey, so-and-so is alive!” upon seeing someone’s new post. So yeah, that’s me waving at you. Still here.

Man, I need a fresh page now.
