Have not posted here on the ol blog in quite some time. There have been a number of reasons for that. Here are some of them, in no particular order:
I joined Facebook and for some time that was adequate for expressing my feelings in short bursts.
I felt like I was perhaps being too open on this thing (although an argument could be made I have been doing the same on FB), especially considering the less than anonymous nature of this thing.
Most people I knew in the blogosphere had slowed down or stopped their blogging altogether, and I felt like people had stopped reading.
So why am I starting back up now?
I am not really sure. There has been a lot swirling around in my mind and FB is not always the best place to write about it. I guess I am hoping my lengthy hiatus here will provide me with a renewed sense of anonymity.
So what's been going on? A lot and not a damned thing, all at once.
I am still based in DC, still doing the freelance design thing, although I am doing as much scenery and projections work as lighting these days. I added the Scene Design category to my USA card. There has been a sharp drop off in design work over the past year or so, but it seems that is beginning to turn around. I have been filling in the gaps with over- hire work as an electrician or carpenter at various theaters around town.
I am still single.
I know, we are all shocked.
More soon.
