A Note from Em
I miss writing for you all.
I was perusing several multi-paragraph drafts that I abandoned for one reason or another and find myself wondering why I can’t seem to put thoughts together these days. In my drafts, I always start out strong with a few forceful paragraphs, then run out of steam and lose a coherent thread.
You’re missing out on my half-finished rants against JD Vance, Rachel Maddow, and the ADHD med shortage of 2023. You were spared my (probably predictable) thoughts on the 2024 election. And it has been a really long time since I broke apart a new SCOTUS decision for easy consumption.
I’m not certain what my problem is these days. I have the time, with work being rather slow as of late, but I seem not to have the motivation, or perhaps inspiration. But I’m still here, moderating comments and proofreading submissions, waiting for the urge to put together a few thousand coherent words on a topic of Ordinary interest.
In the meantime, I wish all of you — yes, even you, dude who inexplicably has beef with me and snarks on everything I post — the happiest and most stress free of holiday seasons, and the most prosperous and joyful of New Years!
Warm wishes to you Em. I have had a similar spell these days. I hope you find the groove soon. I always love reading your posts.Report

Good to see you
I think a lot of us have lost our inspiration of late. I hope yours returns soon.Report
We miss you Em, I am just delighted to see anything from you. I hope you have a fantastic new year.Report
