I used to be a blogger.

Then my brain broke.

I started blogging in 2003, during the Dean for America campaign. I blogged at BlueOregon.com for a long time, and then tried my hand at video and other endeavors.

Then mental health issues took me down, hard. I’m finally on the other side of that, still with a lot of healing to do but, unlike before, I understand why I had so many problems with doing the things I wanted to do.

So: back to blogging. It’ll be a mixed bag of politics and whatever grabs my attention long enough for me to type 500 –1000 words. Feedback is welcome.
