I'm not exactly sure why I left.  I was just ready for a change.  I knew I wouldn't be away long though.  There are too many people like BB and Di and Sarah whose posts I just wouldn't have been able to stay away from for too long.  And there were some writing tag people that the thought of never being in touch with again broke my heart.  Part of it probably had to do with the fact that I rarely, if ever, was updating.  I've got so much going on between my upcoming first semester and buying a house and some other miscellaneous things that I can't find time to update.  The thing is, if I have a bunch of subscribers who I barely know, I suddenly feel bad for not updating.  Oddly, it's the ones who I feel like have a lot more privilege to the things that are going on in my life that I don't worry about when I have weeks long absences.  I know you'll understand when I disappear and then come back randomly.

So, I apologize for the lack of forewarning to my decision, but I've got to admit I'm glad I did it.
