Hiatus Difficulties & Random Thoughts

the problem with a blog going on hiatus is that you have to rebuild readership. i have no idea who still reads this thing. i don't think i've posted anything original for at least several years. this may not be true, but it certainly feels that way.

some thoughts:

• its easier to just articulate thoughts in bullet point. they force you to be to the point, and if you happen to be shallow or deliberately vague - you can be. of course i am neither of those things.
  
• post-college life is hard. even though in many ways this year has been the best of my life...it has definitely been the worst as well. i don't think i'm going to say anymore than this right now, but just saying that outloud in the public arena of cyberspace is a bit of a release.
  
• i've almost completely gone mac. yes, after a year of declaring i would go to the dark side -- i almost have. black macbook, 2gb ram, 80gb hd. first thoughts: aesthetics, ergonomics, and proper UI go a freaking long way to making it more enjoyable to use the computer. vive le mac. (or is la mac?)
  
• dating is hard. thinking about marriage is even harder. a couple guys and i got together awhile back talking about the rough patches we were having with our respective sig-others. the one guy who wasn't dating said, "man, i want a gf." haha. but honestly though? its the rough patches that define the relationship. its been hard - but what awesome things in life are easy?
  
• o holy night stuck out in a new way. its tyrone's fault.
  

long lay the world
in sin and error pining
till he appear'd
and the soul felt its worth
a thrill of hope
the weary world rejoices
for yonder breaks
a new and glorious morn

here's to hope breaking anew into weary lives.
