Where have you been?–or–A Brief Interruption

“Your most recent blog post was October 2016.It’s June 2018, you know.”
“Yes. Sorry.”
“Well you don’t have to apologize.”
“Yes. I almost said ‘sorry’ again.”
“You’re not from Canada are you?”
“Not directly.BTW, that’s getting kind of old. That Canadian image. And if anybody is needing to apologize, I don’t think Canada is first up.”
“Can we skip the politics?”
“If the politics can skip us.”
“So back to the absence of blog posts…?”
“Wrote things on facebook instead.”
“Is that safe?”
“There is the issue of instant gratification. Folks don’t have to work so hard to find what you’re thinking or doing.”
Hesitation. “You could start to put some of those comments here.”
Hesitation. “There’s also something about self doubt. Like who’s going to read anything here?”
“Well, you could, couldn’t you?”
“I am now.”
“Aha, well that’s a start, eh?”
“Wait, are you from Canada?”
“Oh Canada!”
