The biggest cliche in life Blogistan is weepy apologies for not posting more often and promises to be better in the future. So, fine, this is one of those, but with a qualification that means you should take it slightly more seriously than usual.
I am, indeed, going to Japan tomorrow for a not-completely-known period of time (probably 4 months) and since:
- I speak next to no Japanese, and get the sense that most Japanese people don't speak loads of English, and therefore I will have no-one to talk to;
- Being on a bit of an adventure will give me something to write about for a change;
- I've made all sorts of promises I'm not likely to keep about keeping in touch while I'm gone
... this blog is likely to be updated more often and resume its once marginal, as opposed to null, level of interestingness, at least while I'm gone. The point will, as always, be to record the trivial and pointless, since the important and consequential can be recounted one-on-one at appropriate times without losing anything. Also, to keep the keeping-in-touch a little more lively, my next project here is to finally start taking advantage of the Flickr page for pictures, and I think I'll even use my iWeb gallery, finally, for pictures that would violate the semi-anonymity I try to maintain here. Finally, if there's anyone who reads this thing who doesn't pay any attention to the linklist (linkblog? delicious list? I don't know what you call that) on the right or the tumblog (top right), that's where most of the action has been lately.
