The Road Ahead

   So I'm wondering what the hell to do...I have a lot to say, on a lot of topics. But what I don't have a lot of is free time and when I do have time that could be classified as "free", I don't typically have a lot of motivation. And what motivation I can muster, is rarely earmarked for blogging. So I'm trying to figure out how to proceed. While I originally set out to make this a blog strictly about my experiences as a native Californian who has relocated to Colorado with no regrets, which meant I needed a separate blog for my political views, I am starting to think, after loyally following such well-rounded bloggers as Brad Feld and Ben Casnocha that there is nothing wrong, and potentially a lot right, with presenting yourself, in all dimensions, in a single blog (technically, Ben has a separate travel blog but in his main blog he mixes a ton of subjects). For in any given moment, I truly am thinking about all these disparate topics, and both their union and their intersection (remember Venn diagrams?!) make up my collective consciousness.

   So I think I've resolved to blend Californian Refugee and Angry Centrist..My next challenge is maintaining post frequency. As you can clearly see from the huge gaps between past posts, I have by and large picked topics, given them a fair amount of consideration, and then proceeded to compose fairly cohesive posts. While that is all well and good, the more I read others' blogs and the more I think about it, what I need from this blog is a place to vent (both positively and negatively). So I think the key to increasing my frequency is to reduce the "pre-production" (if you will). One sentence posts can be even more poignant than a novella.
