In the Absence of Hope...

So. I havent posted at all recently. not for want of writing. In fact, I have written. A lot. just not here. not for the perusing eyes of the world to read. understand. judge. I've been wrestling with how to write about my life. with my fears. my loves. my apathy. but present it as more than just a thinly veiled diatribe of my life. oh transparency. such a wretched, scary word.


so... who knows.... maybe i'll write more later... im sure i will...


for now i've decided to start doing playlists of the week.... (maybe eventually for the day, but it takes a while to hone down to the most important songs...) i figure this way i can share my love for music. and in a way you as the reader can a) maybe discover new songs (or rediscover oldies but goodies) and b) learn a little about me.... through the implicit rather explicit.... so *deep breath* here goes...
