Now or Never
Well, if a global pandemic that shuts down schools and requires me to stay at home as much as possible doesn’t motivate me to start writing more, it’s time to say that my days of writing anything beyond snappy social media posts are over. So we’ll see where this goes.
I’ve had a lot of ideas in my head for things I would write if I had the time and the energy. The energy is the thing, really, even more than the time. That, and the guilty feeling that there was something I needed to be doing more than writing something for a blog I started almost twenty years ago.
I had not done the math on that until I just typed it. Good heavens, I started this website almost half a lifetime ago.
Anyway, while honesty demands that I admit that I am going to play more than a few games of Civilization V during this hiatus, I am also going to try to use this time to reset some of my routines. I’ve talked about doing this before. Let’s see where it goes.
About Dave Thomer
Born and raised in Philadelphia. Studied philosophy at Fordham University in the Bronx, where I made many great friends and met my wonderful wife. We moved back to Philadelphia, where I studied philosophy some more and became a teacher. Online and off, I'm looking for ways that we can be better citizens and build stronger communities.
