another night with too little sleep. was woken at 2.15 this morning by one of the offshoots, and just could not get back to sleep. second night running on five or less hours of sleep. grin.

this is an odd time of the year. despite appearances, like many folk i’m not always overflowing with confidence, and we’ve hit one of those annual blank spots where i’m waiting on feedback from others before continuing with projects. hopefully over the next two weeks i’ll get confirmation about the year’s best annuals, and come to terms with the annual taxes (urg), and maybe get a chance to get some household stuff sorted. who knows? it’s just an odd time of the year.

oh, one thing i meant to mention. i’m once again reconsidering this whole blog thing. it’s good, it’s fun, it’s self-indulgent, and i’m not sure if it’s a good idea. ayelet waldeman has just started a column on blogging over at salon.com where she asks just that question, so i thought i’d throw it over to you, dear reader? is this a good thing, do you want more, would you like to see other things discussed. feel free to comment, or not.

also noted: joining the party, alex irvine has now got a blog.
