a new blog

i want to revitalize this blog. let's give it a new name.

hmmm. as far as blogger domains go, a bunch are already taken.

sami.blogspot

samiko.blogspot

samico.blogspot

samiclaire.blogspot

and they all look abandoned.

BUT!

salamiclaire.blogspot is available.

DONE.

this blog is officially rebranded.

SalamiClaire: The "La" Is Silent

the name "tanuki talk" just felt weird and out-of-date. i'm sure i'll get sick of this new blog name at some point, but that day is not today.

*actual bloginess starts*

i recently started coming to terms with an important fact:

i've been in a state of mild depression since last august.

in the past, blogging has been a wonderful therapeutic and creative outlet for me. when i'm on a roll, writing comes easily. but once i lose the habit, it's really difficult to get back into it. i seem to go through long-lasting, distinct blogging and not-blogging phases. i'd like to be back in a blogging phase.

hopefully, i'll make it happen.

ciao! (^-^)
