Yes. It is I. Anyone reading this has probably stumbled onto it aeons hence as they had stopped paying attention since I hadn’t updated in so long. So it goes. Why else would this blog be any different than my history of orphaned journals? Ah well, let us continue as if we had only paused to take a breath.

I just learned that skim milk actually makes better foam than whole because of a higher sugar content. Go figure. 37 and still learning. I also just accidentally jailbroke my iphone (no, seriously). Though I doubt it would hold up in the court of the ‘Genius Bar’ it is indeed what happened. Actually, I was trying to jailbreak my old iphone (now in my eldest son’s possession – at his request) and got them mixed up. Doh! Ah well, we’ll see how that turns out.

What else is new…

Found This cool article on 6 Insane Coincidences You won’t Believe . Actually, only the first 2 are that insane to me but they are really insane. I love this kind of stuff. Fort wrote about them extensively and a few of them are mentioned in the intro to Magnolia. These stories make me wonder about the nature of time, imagination & cause/effect. The first two are about authors whose books foretold future events. Were their sensitive imaginations picking up on ripples from future events? Is it possible their books actually somehow influenced events? Which is harder to swallow? Either way, it makes writing seem like a delicate operation. Be careful what you throw out there, right?

Over the years I have experienced a multitude of these synchronicities. So much so that I’ve stopped paying attention and merely accept them as a normal state of affairs (although perhaps secretly I take some satisfaction in them being a sort of reassurance of my life being ‘in sync’).

As for this blog, we shall see what happens. I’m going to try to keep some regular updates happening (for my won sanity, if nothing else) but it all really depends on how I decide to use my precious time. So many other ways to waste it… I am starting a new gig in march so hopefully I’ll be in a better state of mind about sharing what is happening. Stay tuned!
