i've been meaning to ditch my xanga for awhile
and i finally did it.
welcome to my new blog.
it feels weird here.
i've had my xanga for...let me check...1,315 days.
that's over 3 1/2 years.
how silly that i feel a tiny sense of loss
over something so insignificant and intangible.
xanga doesn't have feelings,
it doesn't care that i'm leaving.
xanga was my first little piece of the internet
and although i reserve most of my truly personal thoughts
for kin and paper journals, i have put a lot of myself
into those entries.
ah well, it's time to move on.

Though I don't really see the need for change, and I don't like having to keep up with a dozen bookmarks for everyone's blogs (not trying to be mean!), I will certainly be an avid reader of this slice of the internet. Enjoy your new web home!

P.S. In spite of my intentions, that still sounds mean. So I apologize.
ReplyDeletewe infuse intangible things with thoughts and emotions, so it's not hard to imagine feeling a little pang of loss. but blank slates are fun. i'm looking forward to seeing what you do with this one.
ReplyDeletejamie, you aren't being mean so i won't accept your apology. ;)
ReplyDeletethank you both for being pumped about my new blog and for leaving comments. i really do appreciate it.
