When I first read about Xanga’s potential demise, I was a bit saddened by it. Then for some reason, I lost the will to post. This time had been coming for quite some time though. I noticed that the people who read me the most were not reading as much. And writing and commenting started to become a chore and not something that I thoroughly enjoyed doing like I did back in the day. It was obvious nobody was reading and I was not getting the same joy out of it that I should be getting. And with that i just stopped posting. And I found I didn’t miss it. And because I’m for the most part, a busy guy when I’m working OT (which is almost all the time) I could not justify the time spent to dedicate myself to it.
So with that being said, this is probably my final post. I certainly hope the site continues on and thrives. After all, I’m certainly not deleting my profile; shit I’ve got way too many documented memories wrapped up on here to not keep it active and keep reading previous posts. But, I see no reason to continue writing further. The few people I really enjoyed reading have moved on, so even they won’t read this. I fully expect the only person to read this is myself and that is okay; hell I’ve never been one of those people obsessed with getting people to read my posts.
Farewell Xanga and best of luck. You are a great site and deserve a long life.
