sorry for my absence...

... but I am home now. Home in the horrifically plain suburbs of Chicago, surrounded by white! White landscapes, people, elephant gifts, and minds. And you know how that gives me material. As a sappy, lame excuse for my inattention to this blog, I offer you a scrap of a google chat with a morsel of information about my personal life. It doubles as a sneak-preview of the evil holiday spirits and corporate bah-humbuggery soon to spew from this journal.

elyse: i hate hallmark because it is the mass-production and mass-marketing of everything in this world that is trite, boring, unartisan, and banal
elyse: because 1/4 of the items in the store that aren't about baby jesus, stuffed animals, and gem-studded troll dolls are about making the alcohol swigging habits of suburban biddies cutesy and pink
R: I like you :)
elyse: i like you :)

Isn't that disgusting? Aaaaaand I'm never mentioning my personal life again.

Wouldn't this be more appropriate as a journal entry? I have always wondered how to tell what went where, but now I know: general comments on the human condition = blog; irritating and heartrending confessionals about moods and men = journal; neuro and loving exchanges with Parry = facebook.
