Brave New World

I've had little access to the intertubes lately, and as such the silence that you've all been witness to has ensued in blog land. Even though I've had no way to post, I've been in a particularly creative mood. A lot of the writing i do goes into various journals and documents that are never seen by anyone but myself. I have a lot of things to say, but a lot of them only really need saying to myself. I'm going to crack open a few of these documents and share here, and I'm also going to breach some topics that do not usually grace this blog. This slew of postings is the accumulated fodder from the past week or so, from a variety of my outlets.

On my days off, I like to go on long walks, I like to write, and I like to eat only fruit. On days that i do work, I work long hours and wrap up the day with only enough productive energy for personal reflection. Today I had the day off, and I took the opportunity to pull together a few things that I’ve been ruminating on the past week or so. It is thusly that you find the rash of postings below. I’m starting it all with this little disclaimer because I know that I do not usually talk about my veganism (even though it is right up there in the address to my blog). I have been writing this blog mostly about my travels in China and my feelings/reactions to what I see here. That is going to start altering. I am vegan, I am proud, and I am going to start letting the combination of these two things color more of my interactions with the world. If one person reads this and is interested in these things even the smallest way, that’s enough for me. In addition to my veganism, my liberal socialist queer change-worshiping philosophies might make an appearance or two. Lovely.

Onward ho, I suppose.
