It's time

I'm going to take an official break from this blog.

I know -- given the infrequency with which I have posted, you weren't likely to notice until I'd been gone more than a month. Unless I know you in real life blah blah excusecakes something something.

I'm not deleting the blog. I've written a lot here that I'm proud of and obviously want to save.

I want to walk away because I have thought about doing so a lot over the past few years.

I want to walk away because I don't feel like I have any better handle on this blogging thing after six years at it. 

I want to save the bitching for my journal and create an online space where I can openly share my writing, drawings, and creative ventures that intrigue but also frighten me, like photography. 

I don't have any logical conclusion to this entry, aside from saying I know I'm making the right move because I feel free as I type this.

Thank you for visiting this space, for leaving comments, and for following me. It's been pretty great but it's time to get used to something different.

If you do start another site, let me know! I am REALLY going to miss my dose of daily coffee-snorting while reading your blog. It is creative, witty, and fun. I will miss. Much.

OH NO! Really?! ...Are you sure? :(

That's a bummer. But I'm with everyone else: Good luck with the new site, and (if you want) drop me a line so I can check it out sometime.
