Has it really been 12 days since I wrote anything here?

Every once in awhile I’m looking at the website stats and I see people looking for me.  People around the planet are actually waiting for me to say something.  That is one nerve-wracking thing to realize.

I’ve seen bloggers who up and disappear from their blogs for months or years without another word.  The blog  dangles out there in space waiting for someone to trip over it.  What’s the responsible way to exit?  How does one know if one is exiting or just busy and for how long?  Every time I make a conscious decision to simplify my life everything goes in the opposite direction.  I should stop thinking that thought and just embrace Chaos.

Coming to you from sunny southern Canada.  You’re listening to channel Jay-el-oh-gee on your dial.  You didn’t know we have sun in Canada did you?  You thought it was just snow all year round.  You think as soon as you cross the border from the U. S. there’s a wall of ice.  Don’t lie.  I’ve been 100 miles across the border and people always ask me how’s the weather up in Canada?  I say it’s about the same as here, I didn’t come from the North Pole you know and they look at me as if to say, yeah, but it’s Canada, how can it be the same as here?  We’re the U-S of A, we’re not Canada.

After more than a month harping on about JLiki I feel like I must have been talking in a vacuum. I know some of you read through from beginning to end but it’s so quiet out there. (I expected a parade.)

After almost two years of thinking out loud, this feels like the end of the road for me, organization-wise. My genealogy computer life has gone from increasingly complicated to flat-out simple in about a minute. In the end my main interest is output because why else am I doing this? If just to entertain myself, it wouldn’t be enough. Everything else is on the path to getting there.

TiddlyWiki not quite your thing? Still looking for the organizer to end all organizers?

How about a digital version of your own brain?
