  Feeling: AnticipativeSo… I’ve been off the blog for quite a while now. Travel, work and other stuff have kept me away along with a general sense of lethargy related to blogging.
However, I’m trying to get rid of it, re-prioritize my activities and try and do stuff which I enjoy.

  Feeling: pissed off  Listening to: Audioslave – Be YourselfSomething is wrong with the blog.. The CSS and various javascript files are not being served by the server even though they appear to be present in the themes folder.
