Alas poor Yoric.

When I first started this blog, I didn't really have any goals with it. I did not have the intention of writing witty, topical satire, or fascinating anecdotes from my life. I didn't even plan this blog to be about reviews, or stories. In retrospect, this lack of direction may have been a mistake. Sure I could keep writing random spurts of vague creativity when I have the time or inclination, but what is the point I wonder.

I think I've stated before that I never was particularly concerned about having lots of people come and comment or read what I typed. If I had cared, I'm sure I would have given up on this blog long ago. Still there is something nice about knowing that even a handful of readers are slightly amused, entertained, or even take the time to skim and offer a quick comment now and then.

Like much of this blog, you might be wondering where I'm going. If you haven't already guessed, I'm thinking about taking Merlo's Blog to the vet to have it put down. My desire to write about anything is always sporadic and I often wonder what is the point of putting something in the public eye, if no eye even turns to it. Once I get to 100 posts (pretty soon) I will likely move on from here.

I suppose if I could come up with a theme or some kind of direction I could revamp this site, or create a new blog from scratch. Any suggestions/requests?

I will of course announce if and when I have finished for good.
