Anyone? Bueller?

Hey, guys. So, um, I know I haven't posted here in a year and a half, but I'm curious: Am I still in any of your RSS feeds? Is anyone — anyone at all, even those without RSS feeds — reading this right now? If so, I would absolutely love it if you commented below, even with a "Yeah" or a "Me!" or an "Unfortunately, yes." Or if you'd rather not comment, would you mind shooting me an e-mail at newbietonyc@hotmail.com just to say hey?

As for what prompted this, I'm trying to research this personal essay I'm supposed to write this week for a women's website (I've grown to loathe personal essays, especially mine, believe it or not), so I thought I'd take a spin through my abandoned blog. In doing so, I saw today that Forksplit, one of my favorite blogs, recently had a posting renaissance, and it brought me back to '08. Good times! Good emotionally unstable times!
