I know ... that post I said I was gonna do.

Some things I've been thinking about changing.

Originally when I started this blog, it was about ... well me.

That is, I didn't really put much thought into it other than it was about stuff going on in my life.

After awhile, it became something a bit different. It became about what fascinated and interested me about life itself.

And then it became some even more different.

It became about many of the causes and beliefs I hold and why I think it's important to discuss those things in a somewhat public format.

That was then, and how it's been.

Along the way ....

... I've gotten married, have a couple of kids, become more entrenched in the world of IT, made some strides in musical endeavors, gotten older, etc., ... well life really ...

... and this blog isn't what it was meant to be. Well that, and there are far many more and better up-to-date blogs of a political and progressive nature; at least better so than me. Don't get me wrong, there are a number of posts I'm proud of, and I stand by every post I've made along those lines.

But somehow ... I seem to have lost track of something.

So this year (2013), I'm going to see if I can bring the blog more in line with what I originally intended - random thoughts about culture, life, and other shit I can rant about.

Does this mean I'm completely abandoning all that I've done over the last few years? Perhaps so, but not completely (do I sound like the guy from Dodgeball?).  It's just that not every post can (or should) be about something going wrong in the world or life, or humanity (now I'm sure I sound like an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation). The reason for this are many-fold:

• I'm lazy.
• I'm tired at the end of the day
• It's hard to post from the office.
• Technology has vastly changed since 2004, and I've not kept up.
• I've not mastered the ability to post from a mobile device.
• I'm superficial and self-centered.
• I'm a complete git.
• I've largely given up on the fact that humanity can really save itself from it's own destruction of the planet due to global warming; and have cognizant of the fact that my previous, current and subsequent generations are leaving behind a horrible world for our future generations.
• It's a lot of time and effort which is hard to do given all the things that have changed in my life.
• There are a ton of things I both want and need to do and I'm going to spend more time  doing those things.
• Other things that are going on subconsciously.
• Every possible permutation of none of the above, and all of the above.

So anyways, this is the year I hope to do some different things, but more in-line with the original spirit of the blog. We'll see how that goes.

Along they way, I hope to also do some formatting and updates on the overall look of the blog. So expect that many things might turn into pages and so forth, along with other surprises. When and where those changes will happen is to be determined ...
