In Blog Form, that is. Not a lot of (updated) helpful posts on this, so I figured I should share our experience when we exported Gringo, our 13 year old Kittywitty from Jeddah, K.S.A., to Dubai, U.A.E.! A lot of Animals are left behind when Expatriates move countries or go back home, and it’s really unfair for the fur babies to suffer this way (can you even imagine their heartbreak, not seeing your face and hearing your voice everyday?). If you’re going to adopt a Pet (buying should not be an option anymore, no to Mills), please consider that it is a lifetime commitment. There are so many animals in the shelter waiting to be adopted and most of the ads say it’s because their Family is moving and they could not take their pets with them. I’m sure some have very valid reasons, but if you’re not even putting an effort into trying to take them with you, then I’ll be ringing the shame bell as you walk the airport halls, heading to your flight.

It’s been a month since I officially resurrected my Blog. I mean, I’ve been blogging continuously after my Blogger’s Block struck me sometime in 2010, but I lost my mojo even while I was occasionally publishing posts. I’m really happy to consider that I’ve got my old, lively blogging self back (I mean, if it isn’t obvious enough, I’ve been posting pretty much on a daily basis).

There are so many reasons why this happened (this, being losing my blogging mojo) – primarily because Plurk happened, and then Twitter happened, and then Facebook evolved into this multi-microblogging platform, and then Blogging evolved into … well, what it is now. But what about us, the ones who started blogging as a way to express ourselves to the intarwebs, writing about how our day went, regardless of the number of people who read (mostly don’t read) our entries or leave (mostly don’t leave) comments? Cool thing though, is that I realised I wasn’t the only one who felt left out. I wasn’t the only one who lost their way, lost the motivation to Blog. I mean … it’s not cool, it’s sad. But at least I’m not alone. WE CAN CRAWL OUT OF THIS HOLE TOGETHER, BLOGGER!
