Something is up. I have noticed it, Richard has noticed it. I am sure any remaining readers here have noticed it. My friends I chat with online have really felt the brunt of it.

I am just not spending much time online anymore.

Crazy! Right? OMG, who the hell would have ever seen the day coming where Daniel was not online *every day*. Dude. I used to BLOG *every day*. Now we are lucky to get a photo posted each month… I have changed. Is it for the better? I think so. I am focused on reality much more (not that my online life isn’t real, just not… you know). I think my relationship has improved. I have my first very own non-aquatic pet, which if you know me you know how huge that is. So I guess there are positive trade-offs in addition to the flip side. I miss some of you very much. I miss the excitement of comments. Comments! Such a simple thing, but way more exciting than an @reply on Twitter. Srsly, right? Gawd I miss comments…

Also, as much as I adore (ADORE, love, cherish, worship) my iPhone, it’s just not that conducive to blogging. It does audio well, but that is a major shift that I think needs to be done right on the blog-end… It’s not a podcast, which I am set up for. I dabbled heavily in the podcast world, but it wasn’t my gig. When all was said and done I frankly didn’t have the attention span for it. I liked doing it, the tech was fun. I just don’t have time to listen to them all to be part of the “whole thing”. So there would need to be retooling to make ME interested. I know y’all are Feed Readers at this point. I am the one who needs pretty. Yay! Pretty!

What is this whole post about? I am not sure. I guess it’s another “I’m still here, are you?” type posts. I am not giving up. I just need to reinvent myself.

Like Madonna.

I am still here, Daniel!
I’ve been trying to get back into the swing myself.  Since my students found my blog, i’ve been really scared of it.  )=
Which makes me sad.

I’m working on it!

Comments!  Ah, comments!  I still stop by, though I somehow missed this post earlier.  I guess I’m a blogging purist.  I don’t like to use a reader.  I like to go to the actual blog and see it like the author/creator intended.

I am still here as well, Daniel! I know exactly how you feel. I don’t spend nearly as much time online or with my blog as I used to, regretfully so. I am trying to get back into it a bit.
I don’t use a reader, I also like to see the actual blog and we all know I love the pretty!

Hi. I'm Daniel. This is my blog. I don't update like I used to, but my awesomeness requires an actual website.

210 days and 20 hours until my birthday!
