I wanted to describe my absence using the word sojourn, but I wasn’t technically clear on the meaning of the word. So after Googling* it I have found that sojourn in fact means “to stay somewhere temporarily” which is not at all what I meant. The word I was looking for was in fact hiatus.
So now that the word dilemma has been resolved I am ready to dive back into the world of blogging. I read that a blog should try to focus on one general topic in order to fit into a niche but when have I ever been a joiner? The correct answer is never.
This blog is just a collection of things. That is my topic area…is it specific? No. But is it open to interpretation thus lending itself to finding some direction and focus in the future? Sure.
So stay tuned for who knows what.
*The noun is Google which I can also use as a verb as in the sentence, “Did you Google him?” And I suppose if you did this yesterday one could reply with, “Yes, I Googled him.” But what about actively Google-ing? Googling? Hmmmm….thoughts?
So, I can say I've taken a hiatus from wearing pants? Or, I've taken a sojourn into a fabulous world where pants are no longer necessary? And, yes, I think Googling is a word also.
