I’m back, after taking a month or so off from writing here at this domain. I didn’t completely stop writing, as you can see; I’ve posted a few things here and there and I’ve decided to start from scratch again. I think it’s that time for me, to start anew, to remember my past but not keep it in my present state or in my future. I lived it, I moved on, and I feel my life’s different now than it was even two or three years ago.
Also, this theme is not made by me. My biggest issue when I use different themes is that I feel my readers think I designed it myself, and usually I do make my own; this time, I’m feeling a bit lazy and though I liked my last layout, I like changing things up. I tend to maintain a six month limit with my personal appearance, changing my hair color every so often (see the entry below), and I feel restless with my site’s look and feel after a significant period of time as well. I’m using the very fantastic Tarski theme for now, but I’m certain I’ll concoct a theme of my own again shortly.
This entire week, we’ve gotten so much snowfall. Most mornings driving into work have been peaceful and oddly beautiful, watching the shadows cast blues and pinks on the newly fallen snow, tree branches lined, the world quiet. I love this part of winter.
I’ve considered using other people’s themes but like you worry that people would think I designed it myself.
I’m really glad to see you’re back.

The new theme is very pretty and clean (even if it’s not made by you), and I know what you mean about using someone else’s design. Also, it’s glad to have you back! Glad to see that you’re ok. I love your hair, and think everything looks beautiful around here. ;)

I’m glad you’re back. :) I also like the new theme. It reminds me of summer, in a roundabout kind of way.

I echo everyone’s sentiment that you’re back. I can simply say that I like your choice of themes. I know how difficult it can be to come up with something, only to not like it and feel too tired to change it.

I always take themes and edit them to the point where you almost can’t tell it was someone else’s theme. But I’m horrible at CSS.
