Reviving a dead horse

So, here. Well, here I am. I doubt any of the 3 people who read this blog are still with me after 14 months.

I stopped blogging last time because I realised that between actually doing my thesis and everything, I couldn’t handle the next step of getting meta about my thesis in extended form on here. On the other hand (in hindsight) it was a great way to get some perspective on the bigger issues of what I was doing.

That was last year, though, and this is this year. So far, this year has been almost completely linguistics free. In part, that’s because I’ve moved to Townsville, and Townsville is a fairly linguistics free place. In part, it’s because I needed a break, so when I sit down to decide on a PhD topic some time in the coming months I’ll have a fresh mind.

In the meantime, I’m going to start blogging again. Like before, I’ll blog about any number of things, including but not limited to language, the media, politics, and the web (I’m doing web design now, did I tell you? I’m also part of Social Media Solutions!)

Where I can I’ll also try and draw them into some kind of lucid storyline.
