It’s been 2-3 years since I had a blog I regularly updated and maintained. In that time, the WordPress sites I had sitting around fell into disrepair, and some even vanished altogether, leaving me without a consistent place to come and air-out the thoughts tumbling around inside my brain at all odd hours of the day and night.
I find that if I don’t sit down and periodically empty these things out of my head, my ability to write and communicate begins to suffer as I fall out of practice. Sure I write pages and pages of text every week in emails, and communicate thoughts and ideas in meetings, but that’s only to impart information in the most efficient, compact and bare-bones way possible. Sometimes, I need to take the long winding road to get to the point. Every day I have to condense complex thoughts into 2-3 sentences. Every now and then though, I want to take pages.
So that’s what I’ll be doing here. Hopefully with some frequency. And hopefully someone else may find what I toss onto the page of moderate interest, but it’s OK if no one does.
The things written here may or may not adhere to any kind of pattern or theme. It’s going to be whatever my random brain puts together, and I have the time to type out.
