Dear Blog,

Um, hello there?  Hi again?  Long time no care?  Honestly, there is not a whole lot I can say to you at this point.  Whatever excuse I manage to come up with, nothing will make it better.  Nothing will give you those two years and two months back. Nothing will make up for all that time you spent all alone, fending for yourself in the cold, cruel, cyberworld. I was so sick of my own voice, I told you, that I needed a break.  I needed some time alone.  I should have thought of that before I created you, you say.  Perhaps you are right. 

I know there must have been moments, as you bravely stood alone here being spammed upon day after day, when you thought I would never come back to you. Still, for reasons I do not comprehend, you have done pretty well on your own. An average of 67.5 views per day is not bad for an inactive, orphan blog who hasn`t been updated for over two years.  Big deal you say, reminding me that all your friends now mainly show up searching for geisha porn.   

Fair enough.

I suppose it will take a lot for you to ever trust me again.  But hey, I made you a new banner!  It took me all day, and I even learned how to use photoshop without hitting every button at once out of frustration, almost.  What do you mean you don't like orange?  No it's not halloween, and orange isn't my favorite color either but one color kept leading to another and the next thing I knew you had an orange and black layout. Oh whatever, I'll probably end up changing it next week anyway.  You know me.    

So blog, since we are getting back together after a long hiatus, perhaps we should start things off slowly.  You know, set some ground rules.   I've never told you this before, but I think that, back when we were together all the time, our relationship had really gotten a bit too codependent. At one point we were spending every day with each other.  And when I wasn't with you I was thinking about you, checking your site meter, wondering if you needed a makeover-- all this at the expense of everyone and everything else in my life.

I'm sorry blog, but I cannot live that way again.  Therefore I propose that I will only post once a week, for now.  Also, I am no longer allowed to check the site meter. Like alcohol and googling myself, regularly checking a site meter is a vice that I simply cannot afford to have if I don't want my life to go spiraling out of control. Instead I will have to continue seeking comfort in the vices I am allowed to have, such as coffee and J-pop and Red Bull and run-on sentences. 

I know that this is a lot for you to take in at once.  But I think that if we both try our best, we could make this work again.  I'll be back soon, I promise.  Hang in there and try to get used to the orange.

Love,

Lea

Dear Blog. I feel your pain, because the orange is hurting my eyes. But it's good to have our Geisha and you at least on speaking terms again. I hope you will work things out soon. We could use some Sunshine to help us through the grey and somber days.

Yay! I was hoping you would be back one of these days...
