so this has been my main blog for over two years now. i've made a lot of good friends in that time and i've seen a lot of good people come and go, from the fandom and from my life more generally. i'm definitely grateful to them all; but for one reason or another, i haven't really kept up with the changing community and have ended up on the edges of it, which is fine. it was mostly my choice, anyway.
but that said, after two years, i'm really missing the excitement and motivation of a new fandom, new blog, new friends, new threads, all that freshness and potential. being at the edges of the community is fine until it isn't... and i think it's contributing a lot to my lack of motivation to be here lately.
so, this is not a goodbye, per se. i'm not deleting the blog, i'm not dropping threads. but i'm just not going to be here as much (which, since i've been here so little, means it won't be a huge change anyway i suppose). i'll focus on completing or continuing to build the things i've spent two years building, but that's all, at least for a while. maybe i just need a break; who knows. but in the meanwhile, i'm going to let my current queue run out. i won't take on new threads or begin building new relationships. etc. etc.
i haven't yet decided which blog i'll spend most of my time on going forward, but it'll either be my hawke or one of my existing tolkien blogs, probably. if you need or want the links, feel free to ask.
all right, darp. it's been real. i'll be around.
