And now back to our regularly scheduled program…
Why yes, I’ve been a totally absent landgentry here at the dNblog for over a year and for that I apologize. A few things contributed to that absence.
First, much life was had. If you read some of the previous posts (especially those labeled “natal”) you can probably guess some of the story. I probably won’t backfill many of the details here unless they are particularly amusing.
Second, the whole “please register to see my personal posts” was a big downer for a number of reasons. Nobody registered (and why would you? It is like asking someone to create a new account to keep up with the kind of sandwich your friend’s grandmother eats every day). Plus, it wasn’t as fun to write posts kept in a secret garden no one could visit.
To fix that I’ve moved this blog to a domain that doesn’t include my last name and said name is conspicuously absent from the site. That removes the “stranger stumble upon our family’s personal details” potential that worried my spouse in regard to personal postings. If you already know that info or figure it out yourself (pretty easy to do), let’s keep this personal identifier between us, shall we? If this domain change messed up your RSS reader, my apologies.
In case you are curious, ‘omphalo.org” is the short version of “omphaloskepsis.org” Unfortunately that domain is taken in all of the reasonable top level namespaces so I’ve settled for the easier to type version.
So, please to enjoy. Looking forward to getting back to the old blogosaurus.
