The Walking Dead

A few years ago, I killed off my online existence. Networking sites were deleted, pictures were erased and blogs were abandoned. I had my reasons at the time, though if you were to ask me now, I'd struggle to recall any of them. I'll just say that I wanted anonymity, so I decided to lay low in my own form of social exile. This is not to say I became a hermit in the physical world; far from it. But online, I was a ghost, a mere vapor trail of blog entries and jpegs.



Today is All Souls Day, or as some would call it, Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead). It's fitting, since I've now come back from the dead. Thanks in large part to a handful of friends who were very persistent over the last few years in getting me back onto a social networking site, I've been resurrected. I don't know how long this will last, but for now, I'll enjoy my return to the online life.
