phantom limb!

This blog was down for what appears to be almost a week. Part of this time I was away at my friend’s wedding in NJ. When I came back to OH, somewhere along the way I figured out it was down. I never realized how weird it felt for this blog to not be there. The emails from the contact form stopped coming in, there were no comments for me to look at, and when I had a great (or OK) thought for a post– there was nothing. It was like an abandoned city or something.

It really sucked. I felt like I had somewhere I was supposed to be, and I was a no-show. I thought about the people who were showing up, and going to be greeted with nothingness. Anyway, it was strange to me, because I never quite realized how much having this blog/website became a part of my everyday life. Anyone else have a similar experience?

And sorry it was down. Some kind of confusing technical error on which I’m not sure who to blame!

    Seemed to show up fine to me.

    But yeah, your blog tends to grow on you after a while. Every time you come across something interesting in your day, you automatically think “Hey, this’d make a GREAT blog entry!” Not so good when you’re a medic and you blank out in front of your patient like JD from Scrubs.
