Return

I'm starting (resuming?) a blog. I'm writing it on this space where I briefly blogged 3 years ago because:
1. It's easier than creating a new blog
2. I have a nostalgic/masochistic desire to have the tripe I wrote 3 years ago be visible along with the new stuff I write.
3. I like the name of the blog.

I expect that this blog will be different from the old one in a couple of ways:
1. It will have a bit more of a livejournal type feel to it - I plan on talking about noteworthy/interesting aspects of my daily life rather than just my opinions on things. That being said, I plan on keeping the woe-is-me type stuff to a minimum.
2. Less political essays - I will certainly write about politics as much as anything else, but I plan on writing short comments on things in the news or things I read on other blogs rather than drawn-out essays because I'm never happy with such essays when I look back on them; the time it would take me to write an essay that is up to my personal standards is far more time than I'm willing to spend writing one.
3. Less chat, more hat.
