Although the Greatest Television Show of All Time has been off the air for several years now, I find myself today missing those characters and epic storylines, not to mention the laughs. Although some very good shows have come along since then, particularly Dexter, nothing has come close to the mix of humor, romance, horror, action and great dialog like BTVS.

In years past, when times were tough and I needed some good soul healing I’d pop in my DVD box sets and spend a week or two going through all seven seasons, drinking in those old memories. I could watch all the characters I loved come to life again and the aforementioned epic storylines once more have their sweeping, emotional effect on me.

Although times have been grim in recent months it has been far too long since my last journey to Sunnydale. Maybe it’s time I booked my trip.

It has been an eternity since I last made a post here and at some point one must ask whether I am maintaining this blog at all. I started this site several years ago and have made a journal of every up and down over that time, until late last year. I started and lost businesses, homes and embarked on my boat projects since then.

In these last six months I’ve started studying forex trading and also took a very crappy part-time sales job in the evenings. In this same period of time I also opened an account on Facebook and – like most people now – I spend most of my time posting links and giving personal updates on my FB account.

I don’t know if this means I should close this site down or just update it only on rare occasions. Is “old-fashioned” personal blogging dead? Has anyone else faced the prospect of shutting down their blogs and Myspace journals in favor of Facebook? Not sure myself, but I thought I should say something here about my absence.

If for no other reason than it counts as a blog post…
