Greg's New Blog

Where did all the posts go?

At a few moments in my undistinguished blogging career ("This guy is really emo. Maybe the next blog will have something witty to say"), I've gotten busy or bored and stopped writing. Sometimes, as was the case for this blog, this means something along the lines of half a dozen posts in two years. When you come back after that long, you have to deal with the temptation to wipe the slate clean, because you aren't nearly as depressed as you let on 2006. Maybe, you say, I can just start a new blog and hide the old one in my Blogger profile settings.

I thought about that. But that was a lot of work, and people (two or three of them, I think) would have to update their bookmarks.

The 49 posts on this blog that weren't drafts have thus been relegated to draft status. (The three posts that were drafts have been deleted.) It probably took longer to do that than it would have to start a new blog, but I wasn't going to get any work done during that time anyway, what with having a glacially slow test machine and all.

Said test machine, however, is working again, so I guess I'll have to wait until lunch to do an actual update. Too bad! Check back later.
