I don't know why I've been so quiet lately in LJ. It would seem as though I'd have plenty to talk about: I've had some nice outings lately (including watching the Orioles beat the Twins on an absolutely perfect summer evening, in the fine company of

curiousangel and Ben), some interesting conversations (including an intense discussion of faith and the problem of evil, within my small-group-ministry of Unitarians involved in human service work), some introspective funks (including the perennial question of why it is that, even when I know that putting off things I ought to do ties my stomach up in knots, I still can't seem to forge ahead and get things done), and some very cautious preliminary frubbles.

And yet, I haven't wanted to talk about it here. I'm not sure why I go through these periods of reticence. Some days I've been writing posts in my head - actually, I do that a lot, posts that will never be typed in. If someone invented a voice-activated LJ client I could carry with me through the day, maybe I'd get past this block. In the meantime, I guess I'll just be intriguingly absent.
