On the one hand, I've noticed we haven't really been writing to this blog much. The days of 500-word postings with nary a picspam in sight seem to be over, replaced by pithy one-liners stacked underneath five-inch monstrosities (five inches is a lot on a website). There's a part of me that misses those days. I like writing. Pictures are nice too, I suppose, and all the cool kids are getting a Tumblr now--which caters to those who like to plaster their walls with pretty photos, tack on at best an artily sparse caption and then book it the hell out of there--but oh, oh, this isn't a Tumblr. Ain't a photo album neither and sometimes I worry that's what it's turning into. No, this is a blog, as in a web log, as in an online journal, as in an exchange diary, as in words. Words that we don't take the time and care to write anymore. There is something sad about that.
On the other hand, why worry when you can have a cute little hamster instead? Hehe.
