Anniversary

Today is the first anniversary of this blog. It is also the day it closes down. I set out to chronicle my misadventures with a game system with which I was reunited after more than a decade, what I ended up doing was realizing that such a commitment requires way more time, money and effort than I'd like to expend.

So it is with little fanfare that we close shop today. Simply stated the passion wasn't there. I realized that I'm not that big a fan of video games to begin with and trying to find two or three things to write about per week is a lot more difficult than I thought it would be. Some months were easier than others, shit just came to me, but other months (especially the most recent ones) the days without a post simply piled on and I had nothing to end the droughts with.

See the real money, fame and so forth is in niche blogs. All of these chicks with douchebags, stop making that duckface and other blogs are what its all about. This thing was simply too broad, too ambitious and most often than not too neglected.

It was fun at times. I'm proud of some of these posts, I'm embarrassed at some others and I'm indifferent to most of them. I won't delete the blog because theres no reason to, this is here and its an insight into my mind circa 2009-2010. Just as the former blog (that I deleted) was an insight into my head circa 2003 to 2008. It was a darker time to be sure.

Anyways this is it, it was fun.
