Tenth anniversary
Having a full schedule means some things get put on the back burner. That's not to say they're not important, but not important at that time. Work will always come first, followed by errands, family and friends, social life and then whatever I write into my planner (who needs sleep?).
So, it didn't come as a surprise that this site wasn't updated as often as it should've been. What did come as a surprise was how long I've been doing it.
Scrolling back through the archives, I see the first publishing year. Shit, it's the 10th anniversary. Ten years old. A full decade. Since this isn't a news platform that requires multiple posts a day, that's a long time.
I wish I had the time to post more regularly, but since I already write a lot for my career (I can see you rolling your eyes when you read that term), I sometimes think, What can I say that will be interesting and intelligent without repeating the same things as years past? Then my brain starts to hurt, I grab a tumbler with Scotch and then I zone out in front of the TV.
Personal websites are like plants: if you don't take care of them and give them the attention they need, they'll wither and die. Pretty gruesome way of putting it.
And with that note of positivity, let's see if Human Nature makes it to #11.
