Blogger vs. LiveJournal

Obviously, blogging has been light.

There are a number of reasons. Not all of them are "I've been insanely busy," but a fair percentage translate into a reasonable facsimile of such.

Reasons for busy-ness, and lack of blogging, do include spending more time with "the girl." However, moving, a funky work schedule which has included new equipment at work, taxes, and academic deadlines have all been present as well.

Most importantly, however, is that much of my intellectual effort is usually directed towards dissertation-writing, or at least ought to be. I made a personal decision, when I first started this blog, that it would not be a forum for angsty, self-indulgent, overly psychological musings. As a general rule, unless it is a comment about things actually going on in my life, or thoughts I have about things external to myself, I try not to post it here.

That's what a journal is for.

So, while I haven't had the intellectual spare capacity to focus on analysis, or just to write about whatever's going on, I have been terribly moody lately and putting that out on my LiveJournal account. I don't actually recommend reading my LJ, and I seriously doubt that there are any people out there actually interested.

However, if you just can't get enough of Jonathan and actually give a darn to know what's going on in my brain, well, then, I actually have been journaling, as opposed to blogging, quite a bit lately. Anyone interested, feel free to look things up there.
