Well, I've just had a re-awakening. I came to log in and found that everything about my long comfortable blog had changed. Google has taken over. I had to reestablish my account and was momentarily freaked out, thinking that I'd lost my access. It seems, so far, that everything is as it should be. Some things about the "dashboard" have changed, but it is supposed to be improved. We'll see. I mean, I established this blog back in 2002 and though I don't make entries that often (and went a whole year without a single entry) I've come to think of this as a sort of stable state. It serves as it should as a sort of log...a Web log, or Blog as intended. Truly it's taken me a long time to learn how to manage this space, and I'm no where near where I'd like to be with regards to utilizing this territory, I had to start somewhere, and this was it. Now, before I start philosophizing about the recent election results I should see if this post appears as it should.
