Without quite realizing what I was doing when I started typing, it appears that I've just closed the book on my regular blog of nearly six years, Do You Feel Loved?
For a while now, I haven't quite known what to do with that space. It was obvious that my zeal for blogging in the way that I used to (when I was in college, and was much more -- less? Let's settle for "differently" -- self-aware, and had a lot more free time, and far fewer personal and professional entanglements) had pretty much died out. I'd been toying with ideas for turning DYFL into more of an informational, aggregational site, for my own edification more than for an audience's. I like people to know what I'm up to -- I'm not a private person, really -- but I was tired of having to frame that information in a written, performative way. Or perhaps not "tired" of it; maybe I just ran out of the time, energy, and inspiration. I would like to be a person who can write large amounts of entertaining text, but the way I've been living my life these days, it just hasn't been in me. Something's got to give, and it appears that the blog is what went, not the lifestyle.
What is that "lifestyle"? Well, that's a post for another time, really, since I suspect it could get seriously mopey and I've got laundry to do and a haircut to get today. But this momentous event seemed to need to be remarked upon here. More later, perhaps.
