What a strange thing, but it seems I wandered away for a bit. And I would say "I'm back!!", except that I'm not, really. I have a million topics to talk about, with a boat load of photos, but *sigh*, I'm just not putting them up tonight.
I was pondering the issue as I was gadding about town today, meeting a friend at BuBuBu, and then a group of ladies for a trip to the Nuts and Berries Market, then to the Japanese place with the sushi train for lunch. I think my sudden reluctance to document life here may have something to do with being "settled." I feel as though I have found my stride, as it were, life is full and busy, and we are up to our ears planning trips (cultural!) and, well, just living life. I'm a lot less "gee whiz!" about it all, as the 'interesting, 'when you experience it daily, quickly becomes the mundane.
Mundane, like, I am trying to get a group trip together to the Tibetan restaurant that roasts whole goats for you for dinner. That kind of mundane. But when you see it everyday, it is mundane. Anyhoo, I have clearly misplaced my Muse. But I am searching through my desk right now looking for her. And once she is located (where could she have gotten herself off to???) I will post again!

I thought perhaps you were still swooning from The Backstreet Boys concert. I pictured you reclining on a divan, dabbing rose water on your wrists and temples.

Roast a whole goat. Hmmm. Yes, perhaps I am too far from my food source. We are looking forward to your Muse's return after her well earned holiday.

Roasted whole goat? Mundane? Must taste like chicken . . .

The problem with living in a foreign place, of course, is that after a while, it ceases to be "foreign." So, yes, roasted whole goat sounds pretty mundane.
And, truly, I was still swooning from the BSB concert. We stayed up way, way past our usual bedtime, and got all thrown off on sleeping. So, that did contribute a bit to my muse heading off. I think perhaps she was just catching a bit of shut eye. ;-)

ok, but i too stopped reading your blob (ooopps! blog!) for about a month. I don't know. mostly, i read it when i, ahem, pump milk for the really wee one; and i just moved on to CNN. And recently, my TAXES. But, i'm back (my taxes being on the verge of being mailed out). And maybe your muse will return too. After all, sometimes creativity needs some time to fill up a bit.
And with tomorrow being March 31st, i at least will have some blog entries (more than likely) to read while i continue to supply the un-latching baby.
ciao!
