Well, this was quite a hiatus for me from the world of
blogging. It has been a tumultuous time of late, working two jobs for a while,
buying a house, and so on. And sometimes once you have broken the chain, it is
hard to but the links back together again, so for a while I gave up on updating
this blog. Slowly the postless days turned into weeks, and the weeks into
months, until before you knew it I had gone five months without a single post
springing forth from my clumsy fingers.
Sure I had material along the way, and wrote some half-arsed
posts on the new Spiderman film, or our recent robotic mission to Mars (yes
NASA, take that; I am claiming everything you do for humanity as a whole), but
none of it ever manifested as an actual resolve to posting.
Slowly I began to lament my lack of blogging, and worse yet,
I realised that whenever I did post next, I would have to explain my absence (which
I recall doing multiple times in the past; not a good sign). Not only that, but
my first post back should surely be a momentous one; one to distract from my
previous neglect. And so I was further dissuaded from posting by my own
eccentricities, but then today I had an epiphany.
Who cares?
My blog isn’t really that important, hell it isn’t even that
good; it’s just my inner musings, distorted and extracted from my mind by my
novice writing abilities for the public to see (but for most of them to ignore
entirely). So why was I bothering to worry about the reception my new posts
received?
The important thing after falling off a horse isn’t to vault
back on Cossack style it’s just to get back on the damn thing, no matter the
fashion.
So here I am, dusting off the reins, and strapping myself
back in.
Hopefully some of you out there are looking forward to this,
perhaps you enjoyed my posts in the past, and as I had no real talent or
expertise to let wane over my absence, you can be assured that the same quality
(or lack of it) will remain in future posts.
I’m looking forward to it.
Cheers,
MM
[Interesting sidenote: During my hiatus I was still getting
around 15 daily views of my blog, so if anything at least this break has
provided me with a nice benchmark to winkle out the bot visits, and focus on
the people really drawn to my musings.]
