Hmm.
I kind of miss my old journal. Not dissing blogs in any way, because hello? I have three of them. I only post in one, sure, but the other two do exist for the sake of my whims.
It's just kind of like reading a book (the journal) versus reading a magazine (the blog). Which is, of course, the intent of having both. A journal to spend "scrapbook" quality time putting thoughts and pictures together, and a blog to toss out quick blurbs and anecdotes. I've made a couple of attempts at writing a meatier entry in the blog, but it feels strange, somehow. Ephemeral. Less solid than a journal entry. I'm making no sense, I know.
Perhaps the journal will see a renaissance soon.
