I couldn't sleep a few nights back. One link led to another and I found myself perusing crossrecord.blogspot.com, my blog from 2008-2013. I enjoyed reading some of the posts while feeling pretty wholly disconnected from that person writing. I came across to myself as curious, maybe even intelligent? Who was this person? Did I get dumber? Why haven't I kept a writing habit up for many years? I thought: yes: I am going to revive this blog and leave behind at least a portion of my Instagram activities-- swap them for writing more, posting more consciously, more slowly.

I've just attempted to log in to said blogspot with no luck...it's simply been too long. Here I am on my other blog, which I'm calling a bog because I mis-typed it but relate to that a lot more. It's a record of time and a few thoughts, experiences, images that pass by within my existence here. Hello, if anyone is around- and if no one is, that's okay too. xoE

This is the black lake of Falmouth. That's what it is in my mind- my friends showed it to me on a walk through a strange wood. The water was amazingly black, still, and opaque. I got the sense that if I were to enter it, I would emerge out into some other plane of reality altogether.

Time is a strange, funny thing. Only less than a week ago did I stumble across Loma for the first time, and having never heard of yourself before either. So in the words of The Architect from the Matrix, "led me, inexorably, here." One day after your latest post!
So glad you enjoy living in the UK, hello from a fellow Brit! My half American/English wife says hello too :)

Chris, hello :-) Thank you for letting me know you are here. I feel 'led inexorably here' most places I've ended up in for a lot of my life. You as well? Hello fellow half American/English person!

Well it was due to Covid that we ended up deciding to move down to Southbourne (east of Bournemouth along the Dorset coast). This is the best place we have ever lived, and that includes moving to Florida, so here we'll stay for the foreseeable future. Amazing to think we were inexorably led here due to a pandemic, but we'll happily take it!

I found myself listening to your music for the first time in about a year when I thought to check your website for anything new. Looking at the dates of the recent entries on the adorably named Bog the timing seems somewhat fortuitous. I hope you and your steady waves are well.

Also, I had been meaning to ask... would you consider adding a lyrics section to your site?
