Hello . . .

25Jan13

Hi friends.  Yes I’m still alive.  I’m sorry for the long radio silence.  I’ve been busy and distracted by various things, and debated between shutting down this blog altogether vs taking an extended absence.  And in fact, I didn’t even check my blog (or anyone else’s) for the last two months.   The blogger fatigue syndrome, I guess.  But really the main reason is a bit more mundane, and it’s something like this — have you ever forgotten to return someone’s call, or email, or send a thank you card etc and the longer it gets, the more like it’s been so long that you’re embarrassed to do it?  Very circular I know.  No, you’ve never done that?  Well, that was me.  It’s been so long that I was like, what am I going to say.  In any event, I am continuing with this blog — I figured, how silly is it to stop doing what I love, just because other things got in the way and I just lost inspiration for a while.

In short, this is just to stop by to say that I’m still alive and will continue with this blog, and also to thank you for your support (I can’t believe I have over a thousand followers–which is huge for me).  My posts will be more sparse but they’ll just appear in your email or WordPress reader if you’re a subscriber.

Just two photos from my Hong Kong trip in May (which I still need to finish posting). And with this, goodbye for now — I’m taking off next week for a little jaunt somewhere, but will definitely be back in mid to late February with photos (not trying to be mysterious, but I have this “thing” where I just don’t like to announce to the world what I’m going to do before I actually do it).

Thanks for stopping by.  See you in February!

    Dear Lauren,
    So happy to see your name in my in-box. Yes, I understand the awkwardness of overcoming long silences, but the delight in reunion always makes up for it. Enjoy your upcoming adventure. I will stay tuned!

  2. Those dogs are adorable!!!! Great pictures :)

  3. the dogs are so sweet, but i feel sorry for the lady in the background, clearly those are not “fell of a bike” bruises :(

    • Thanks for stopping by. I saw her up close and it’s not a bruise, and actually looks like a birth mark. Hope that makes you feel better!

  4. ‘other things got in the way and I just lost inspiration for a while’ – that sums up things for me too. good to see you back L and those dogs are so cute :) how happy do they look! x

    • Marissa–happy to see you back too — but no pressure ;) Yeah, I need a library of cute dog pics for when I have nothing to post
