Missing Persons
I have decided that my blog needs more arbitrariness. Is that a word? It is now! So, I have decided that this week is Missing Persons week. I'm not very good at staying in touch with people. Each day this week, in chronological order, I'm going to write about people I don't talk to and don't know how to get in touch with. I might get bored of it quickly and stop, like I did with the Nerd/Geek/Dork post. But since I've written this, I've kind of entered into a contract saying I'll write five of these. And there seems to be a decent number of people who read this thing now, so ya'll can complain at me if you like this idea and I fail miserably.
I suppose this blog is, at some level, an attempt to maintain contact with people. So when I leave somewhere, people can stay in touch with me. Or think they're staying in touch with me, or remember me, or something of the sort.
