i really don't remember exactly why i started this blog. i suppose it seemed like a good idea at the time and that it might be kind of fun. i had no expectations whatsoever other than maybe to document and share some of the stuff i collect. but i must admit that starting this blog was probably one of the best things i ever did in my entire life. as a direct result of writing this blog i have met some amazing people (some whom i am now lucky enough count as very close friends) and a opportunities have come my way that i would never have thought possible.
in many ways (not necessarily related to this blog) my life right now is very different than it was 3 years ago. there have been some major twists and turns. what i do on a day to day basis has changed. there's been some bad stuff but there's also been some (really really) good stuff happen too. some very cool people have put their trust in me and i am involved in a project that i am putting pretty much most of my energy towards.
that said, my regular posting to this blog will diminish for a short time. as things come up or i am inspired i will most certainly be posting from time to time. i am not abandoning ship just shifting my focus elsewhere for a little while.
thanks for reading my blog, making comments and for supporting me + my endeavors.
