cease and desist

Upon my recent decision to start recording my thoughts here, I made a few promises to myself:

a) I will update regularly;
b) I will not undertake long diatribes about the purpose/s of this blog;
c) Times when I found it difficult to update, I would be particularly disciplined and force myself to write even just a few thoughts.

Then IT happened. 

Not some season of drunken debauchery or unriveled apathy, just a late night mugging, a broken relationship, a father hospitalised and a thesis deadline. And suddenly a whole winter has passed without an update.
