Colors Fading

I haven't blogged much in the last few months and this trend is likely to continue. A few reasons why:
  1. I have a girlfriend. Blogging about the single life was fun and interesting. Blogging about one's relationship is distasteful.
  2. School is not worth blogging about and it keeps me quite busy.
  3. For various reasons, much of what I do workwise is not really fit for public consumption.
  4. Since moving from Livejournal, the number of comments I receive per blog has dropped by about half. (it appears that to raise this, I must blog about John and Kate +8)
  5. No one gives a crap about my music tastes.
  6. Recommendations from Doctors, Physical Therapists, Massage Therapists, and most of my friends to spend more time offline.
  7. Increasingly I find that what's actually on my mind is inappropriate for a public blog.
  8. Twitter
  9. Facebook
  10. Most people use online communication to improve their public image. This blog has never done that for me.
Bottom line, I'll still be posting from time to time because it's cheaper than therapy but maybe it's time to change your homepage to something else.

It's the end of an era -- and funny stories. Alas.

NONSENSE!!! Football season is beginning next month. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll spring back with tasty opinions and tidbits weekly :)

Glad to hear that life is keeping you busy, though. :) It'd be nice to see your physical face parts in real life sometime, but in a pinch FB works.

I always enjoy posts and photos about your various hiking/mountaineering trips. I hope they will continue.

I'm seriously bummed, your blog helps me feel connected to my roots in Boulder. I understand and I support your decision. I'll find another way to keep in touch.
