Time to Get Back

… to where I once belonged — this hiatus from blogging has gone on long enough. Obviously a lot has happened in my life of late, what with a wedding and all, but there’s certainly been a lot more going on in the world at large about which I would have liked to have spouted my drivel.

That said, what’s done is done, spilt milk, yada yada. Look not here for tales of phony anti-war rangers and rumors of blog feuds, shows of sockpuppets and college instructors turned darkly psychotic blog commenters. Now, had you been following the fine sites on my blogroll, you’d be quite familiar with all of these tales already.

Speaking of my blogroll, there’s a few things I want to point out before I once more unto the blogging, dear friends.

The Mudville Gazette‘s Greyhawk, the founder of the MilBlog webring, has gathered up several of the best MilBloggers around for a new and appropriately-titled group project: MilBlogs. It’s certainly worth checking out repeatedly; several of the contributors were already on my blogroll and others soon will be.

GunnNutt, blogger and devout supporter of the troops, has left behind her old site for one more dedicated to her self-appointed and much-appreciated support role. Please visit her at Semper Gratus.

Lastly — though I know I’m missing a million things I’d wished I’d pointed out over my break — I would like to send out a hearty congrats to long-time blogroll denizen, Phil Gray of Shades of Gray (Umbrae Canarum), for his completion of a long journey with a successful defense of his doctoral dissertation. Now maybe he too will get back to blogging.
