Or "Hiatus gonna hate."



Do you see what I did there...?

Anyway. So. Nearly a five month break. Now, where were we?

Sometimes I think you need a holiday. I've been writing this blog on and off for nearly seven years, which is a long time in anyone's language. And I was naturally seduced by blogging's younger, sexier sister Twitter, which takes less effort and gets more attention. But although I thought about deleting this old thing, it is different, and it's lovely to come back to it.

The last few months have heralded a lot of changes. I've moved house. I've changed jobs. I've gone from a relationship to it's complicated to quite happily single, thanks ever so. All three of which have improved my state of mind immeasurably. But a lot remains the same. My brain is full of music and stuff. And I try and blog and tweet about happy good things. For a while, blogging was a chore, and I struggled for topics and positives to write about. But a break has inspired me.

I shall make no promises of a productive writing spree to rival Shakespeare on ritalin, as I've made foolish pronouncements of this sort before, and failed to live up to them. So let's just see how we go, eh? And if you really miss me, head to http://www.twitter.com/delrico, cos I'm bound to be spouting some gibberish there.

Woohoo!
