Pokes Blog, Is Found Dead

Welp, looks like the blog is dead.  Not much to say about this one, really.

I wrote, I stopped writing, I wrote again, and then I stopped.  Honestly, I had a few good moments with this blog: unfortunately, not enough of them to keep it going.

See, when I write about something, I really want to enjoy re-reading it, and I want to have fun writing it.  However, both of these things are completely lost to this blog.

First, I don’t know what it is about my writing, but it’s about as entertaining as roadkill.  Nothing about this blog screams satisfaction of writing.  Second, I keep getting the feeling that everything I write down here keeps needing a censor to avoid being backlashed by people close to me about whom I write.  Honestly, I feel trapped in my own people, and it’s a restricting, suffocating place to write in.  I hate it, and as a result, I hate writing for this blog.

So yeah.  That’s it then.  Honestly, I’m not really that sad: this blog was started to reflect a new part of my life, a new chapter.  With Lorelai and I splitting up a couple of months back, that chapter ended, and a new one has started.  The characters have developed, the story continues onwards, and the chapter from the past is left behind.

I don’t know what it is with me and ending blogs in July, but meh.  It happens, I guess.

No forwarding address this time, though, because if I do decide to start a new blog, I want no one I know to know it’s there.  My brother had it right: if you have a personal blog, keep it to yourself.

In any case, that’s that.  No teary goodbyes, no promise of anything new, just the knowledge that this club is closed.

FOREVAH.
