As this blog lumbers into its third year of existence, I’m still mostly happy with what I’ve managed to piece together here. This afternoon, I took advantage of some of Google’s new design tools and updated my template a bit. With that will, I hope, come a renewed focus on posting content. It would be nice to write more often, as my pace in 2010 has been fairly sedentary. But overall, as a collection of glimpses of moments in my life and the world, I think this blog serves its purpose well.
One of the things I noted the last time I reflected on this effort was how much enjoyment I took away from reading friends’ blogs. I mused that this had become a backdoor way of keeping in touch with people who I don’t get to see regularly and that the mere knowledge that we occasionally read each others’ thoughts instilled a subtle sense of closeness. Unfortunately, save Tom, who has continued posting about his life in New York and his evolving career as a stroller-parking playwright, all of my friends’ blogs have gone quiet lately. If I had to name one regret for the year, it would be that.
Otherwise, all is good in my corner of the blogosphere, as well as in Washington, where we are in store for a beautiful, sunny, 70 degree fall weekend. Soon the leaves will sport all sorts of glorious colors and I will carve a pumpkin.
