Birthday break

I know, I know, I haven't been posting as much as I used to, but I've got a great excuse: my life is in a state of flux, I'm thinking about going back to New York, and I have a birthday coming tomorrow. I'm getting closer to the big 30 and it's scaring me not because I mind getting older for I was born old, but because I fear that I'm not getting smarter. There is nothing worse than being old and unable to lean from experience, especially from past mistakes. Anyway, I'm going to take some time off. The good news is that I will be back on Monday, but the bad news is that I may stop blogging, if I'm able to, for a few weeks  (4 at most) shortly before Christmas. I need time to stop and just to take a deep breath and exhale. Anyway, enjoy the weekend and please forgive me (that's the title of my favorite Bryan Adams's song) for deserting this blog more than I want to, but simply because I need to in order to keep my hunger for writing and knowledge intact. I'm brain dead right now and  I need to slow down.
