In honor of my 6th blogging anniversary and because I felt compelled to write every day again, I challenged myself to blog here every day for a month. I more or less succeeded (with some instances of cheating), but there were 30 blog posts in 30 days, and I don't want to stop, even to get back into the discipline of just trying to do 1 blog post every day split up among the 4 blogs I have, so they are all updated regularly. Forward momentum is powerful, and I don't want to hobble it by setting arbitrary rules. All that's to say that if you are one of the few family members and friends who reads here regularly, the flood will not be abating for a while. (You're welcome.)
I recently wrestled the haphazardly unpacked stacks of my notebooks from over the years (starting my second year of my MFA apparently), and there was so much drafting in them that never made it onto a page for even the cursory editing efforts I put forth here that I could seriously post one every day for several years before I had to start coming up with new material. I totally want to do that some day. But I also want to leave room for the NOW, so this can serve as more of a record again, a slightly humorous (when possible) way for the limited folks I've told about it to know I'm still here, still thinking too much, and still really obsessed with teeny tree frogs. (I sort of think they're my current muses but not actually really at all. They're just cute in an ugly way, and they can hang in there with the best of them.)
