Headache

All this silence is giving me a wicked headache. To be fair, what could I expect? That all my former readers would notice and care about my return immediately? That they would unreservedly welcome me back after I abandoned them? Especially with my refusal to self-promote (I'm not for sale. Why should I promote?) which is a guaranteeed way of flying beneath the radar?

Obviously I'm being a bit fecetious on both sides there, but like I said, this is part of an experiment for me. So for now, I'm just going to shoot my messages into the void as it was in the beggining and we'll see what happens. People notice and care, I'll keep going. If they don't notice or don't care, I guess I'll stop. It's a sort of sociological experiment, polluted by my contradictory desires to remain "somewhere out there" where I can be objective and an "authority" and my desire to be right in the middle, known to everybody and making a difference. The middle ground? Writing, especially blogging, where you could (theoretically) be a celebrity and yet your most devoted readers wouldn't know who you were. I'm not much for obfuscation, so I mean, my name is right there, but I think you see what I'm saying. I'm interested in whether or not you guys have noticed my return, and prepared to go either way if you have. In the meantime, expect me to pick up the old M-W-F update schedule for the time being.

If anyone *has* found their way back, are there any subjects you wish me to viciously savage, secure as I am aloft my high horse, riding about the indoor polo field I had installed within my gleaming ivory tower? Or shall I just babble about whatever comes to mind in a typically cynical, nerdy way as per usual? The ball is in your court, my (largely imaginary) gentle readers.
