BLOG NEGLECT!!!

Not sure where the ol' blogging spirit went.

Come to think of it, I think that one of the reasons why I don't update this blog so much is the lack of interactivity involved. I tweet on twitter and I get replies, I talk to people on messenger and (of course) that's a conversation. There isn't really much conversation going on here, I don't think.

I think my blogs in the past had more in the of comment conversations and what-not.

I am not blaming you all, of course.

My arm is very very itchy due to my sunburn from last weekend. I don't know for sure, but I think something is up with my wrist now, too.

I know I've been in a good mood over all these days because songs have been popping into my head a lot lately.

I've been following tweets on twitter from Iranians risking their lives to keep people in other countries updated in what they're going through in their post election chaos. It's crazy what those people are going through these days. Of course, the talk of "martyrs" that's popped up a lot lately kind of freaks me out a little. I know from reading "Persepolis" that this isn't something new to them at all.

I don't know much about who would be best to lead Iran and that's not really my business, but I do hope that their struggle for a real democracy eventually comes to something. Reading the tweets, it's impressive how much courage these people have. Who really knows if everyday Americans have this kind of courage because it's never been tested.

Boy, this blog is jumping around just about everywhere. Probably mostly because I am not exactly writing it all in one sitting or with any focus whatsoever.

(That last sentence was also written with absolutely no focus...)

language

It doesn't seem like written word is coming quite as easily to me these days.

Is that a sign of the deterioration of my native language?

I seem to be expressing myself with pictures these days because I started a doodle blog that I share with other people.

Hopefully this is just a phase, it's scary to think that composing in English is getting to be difficult.
