It's not you, it's me

I'm kind of blitzing the blog with new posts today, but clearly I hadn't posted in nearly two months. Up until now, I wasn't quite sure why I just couldn't get myself to post more. I have lots of ideas, but for some reason I don't ever actually take the time to post them. And I have been voraciously reading other blogs (I read at least 6 San Francisco food blogs - ridiculous, right?). And I do think there are some people out there who do want to read my blog. So, it doesn't add up, does it?

Today I read this article and helped me realize the reason why I am not a natural blogger. It's no secret that I am a classic introvert and while I have had a general understanding of what this means for me, the article hit home in new ways. I already knew that I'm not inclined to talk about myself very often, and I realized that the same holds true even in the virtual world. When I set up this blog, I thought that it would be easier to write about myself than to talk about myself. As it turns out it is just as exhausting of an activity virtually as it is in person. Anyone have any thoughts on this??

So, I guess this is my excuse to make me feel better for not posting much. I don't plan to end the blog, but I do expect to be ok with not posting as much and all I ask that you be ok with that too. 

And with that, I'm off to go be by myself.

The Blog is back

I didn't intentionally not post anything on my blog since November. Maybe it was the trauma of falling down a mountain (or not being able to top that post). Maybe I subconsciously needed a break from blogging (not that I have ever really written that frequently). Or maybe I just have had blog-writer's block. But, whatever the reason, I just haven't written.

But, good news - I've had some recent post ideas and I want to bring the blog back, so please come back and read again! Please...
