It's been ages.

Almost half a year since I last posted here.
That isn't to say I've been absent from the Internet. I still have been doing book reviews, and have been crafting more than I used to. But for a while, I felt that keeping a personal journal was, well, pointless.
Now, I feel that there's a huge point to it. Sometimes I have things to say that don't fit into any of my other themed blogs. Sometimes I just want to ramble about the book I'm reading without actually writing a full-out review. Sometimes I want to rave about the anime that I'm watching, or bitch about how stupid a movie was, or squee over my cats.
This has probably come about because I've been rereading old journal entries from old journals. I seemed to have so much fun when I hung out on LiveJournal ages ago. Where has that spark of me gone?
So I figured I'd start this blog up again. I was tempted to delete the old posts and start over, but keep this username, but no. There's no point in pretending that I didn't have a history before now. I had it. It was there. I have to deal with it. I've had enough fresh starts, enough blank slates that only seem appealing because bits of myself haven't leaked through. They always leak through, in the end. I can't go through life pretending that I'm not who I am.
It's nice to be back.
