I seriously have to get this kicked off.

I’ve really missed keeping an online journal, but haven’t had significant motivation to start back again. Now that I’m faced with a round-trip ticket to Afghanistan next year, I have new motivation to chronicle events in my life.

Some of you remember the “Xanga” craze from years ago, before Myspace started pulling users away. Technically, I still have mine, though it’s all but abandoned. In their process of keeping up with the Joneses, the interface became clunkier and blogging seemed to take second stage.

I may pull a few of those entries and “park” them here (and then kill the site).
