And that was nearly all she wrote ~ a mere two words after five months of silence on WordPress and my computer just up and froze. It was a little tempting to leave things there for another five months but no, I’m still here trying to figure out what I want to say. Which is kind of the point of this post ~ to inform you that I am still here but that I have what I like to call blog fatigue.

This is not to say that I have been suffering from blog fatigue. Quite the opposite. Taking a break from thinking in headlines, editing images and tracking down interesting quotes has been bliss. Life on the other side of blogging has been a healthy mix of exhibiting at art shows, playing music and writing songs, catching up with friends and eating more than my fair share of homemade pizza.

I had been posting here fairly regularly since March 2012 and so it really was time to rediscover what life is like away from the social media treadmill. I also haven’t been on Insta since they changed from the square format to the not square format (which I do not like).

As far as returning to some sort of blogging schedule, I am undecided. 

Pause.

Can you believe that I wrote that out loud and… nothing happened? WordPress didn’t cancel me. The lights are still on and the birds are still singing. Yes, blog fatigue is a real thing and I have it. Happily. I will no doubt make appearances online here and there from time to time. Also happily. But for now, I think I’ll just see what it’s like in the real world for a while longer.
