the tiniest person in the world
I soon came to realize that
the tiniest person in the world
was growing inside of me.
And that would most certainly account for all of the
emotional upheaval
food upheaval
and oversleeping.

Looks like I'll be taking a few months off from the internet while my belly blooms again."
I wrote the above post/poem thing about 2-3 months ago and . . . never posted it? Sorry. I want to thank everyone who took the time to reach out to me when my online absence was noticed. And I apologize for having no idea what the rest of you have been up to. During Simon's pregnancy I was required to be online to complete work for Star Moose and I still managed to read blogs, but this time around I had no online obligations so I let it all go to dust. Only recently did I revisit my Twitter and ages-old Tumblr.
Which got me thinking: I really appreciate the likes of Tumblr. It's a form of social media based around interests, not necessarily who I am. Blogger/Blogspot culture kind of demands photos of yourself, personal details, and frequent updates. Tumblr culture is more about fangirling over books/shows/art rather than revealing who you are, and that's the kind of blogging I started out with when I was 12 or whatever, and it's the kind of blogging I'm more interested in participating in right now.
So this is my announcement to say:
[1] Yeah, I'm pregnant.
[2] My blogging will be a lot less frequent now. I don't want Simon to grow up with his whole life documented online - thanks to my hand - before he's old enough to set up his own Facebook.
[3] My online presence will be focused more on Twitter/Tumblr, if anyone cares.
AND
[4] During my absence I've focused a lot more on my band of tiny horses, i.e. photo project tender mustangs, and I have unique Tumblr for them that's queued to update daily. Again, if anyone cares.
