I miss @tweettales.

I really need to give up the pretense that this blog now centers entirely on poetry and go back to using it for what I used it for from 2002-2006: whatever.  I bailed on blogging about my real life in 2006 when I left the DSI Theater, mostly because I was angry about a lot of things (some theater-related, most not) and didn’t want the friends who had come to be daily readers to have access to that anger.  I didn’t want anyone to share that anger or hear my side of the story without hearing someone else’s.

That doesn’t mean I’m going back to honest-to-goodness, all-out venting like I did in the olden days.  Man, I kinda miss that.  But let’s be honest: my name is on this blog, so if I start saying things like “My asshat co-worker x did this…” there’s a damn fine chance someone will see that, like maybe asshat co-worker x.  I do miss being able to do that kind of thing, but I had to knock it off when I stopped blogging on the IRC and when I got to a point in my career where I realized that perhaps badmouthing someone on your blog makes you as much of an asshat as you think they are.

I also decided– and this one will probably be harder to self-enforce– that I need to go back to using Flickr.  Images communicate a great deal.

Also: it’s my anniversary.  Cool.

Just discovered that when I moved from Movable Type to WordPress, a number of entries were severely truncated.  So basically, it’s like finding out someone came in and erased the last half of a bunch of entries on my diary.  Only it’s on the interwebs.
