Peeking out of my hermitaciosity

I know, I know. It's been ages since I've last blogged. I've been rather "hermitacious" of late -- a label which my brother Maurice invented in my honor and a status my wife applies to me more often than I care to admit online.

It seems the more salient the matters I'm dealing with offline, the more silent I become online.

Perhaps for some bloggers, the exact opposite phenomenon occurs: When compelling events in their lives push them to vent online. However, for me, it's often when exogenous forces, as channeled through cyberspace, pull me back into the blogosphere. This is my take on my irregular blogging schedule . . . Or maybe, just maybe, I'm just as trifling and distractable as any other multi-tasking Generation Xer who has a mortgage to pay -- none of it which is paid through the "professional avocation" I call blogging.

But now that I've peeked my head out of work for a moment, let me get a little neo-digital call-and-response by letting me know that my fellow afro-netizens and other good folk our out there by clicking here.

It is nice to see Chris back in cyberspace.

Alice, if you have ever meet Christopher in person you will quickly see that he is actually quite the extrovert. He is simply hermitacious when he become utter absorbed in indoor activities. A strange combo ;-)

Hey Chris,
You could as well replace the word "hermitacious" in the above post with "introvert"... Introverts may like people and be very sociable but recharge from world events by retiring within themselves and away from people. I should know, I am one... LOL.
