			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello.  My name is Marty Mankins and it&#8217;s been ten days since the <a href="http://www.banalleakage.com/2009/03/15/super-snowy-sunny-scooter-snackie-sunday/" target="_blank">last blog post</a> here on Banal Leakage. [<small>thanks to <a href="http://www.snackiepoo.com/" target="_blank">Hilly</a></small>]</p>
<p>To be more accurate, it&#8217;s been twenty days since the last time <strong>I</strong> [<small><em>me personally</em></small>] posted a real blog post.  Sure, there was <a href="http://www.banalleakage.com/2009/03/14/all-things-come-to-an-end/" target="_blank">the post of photos that I put up here</a> on my last day in Hawaii, but March 5th was the last time <a href="http://www.banalleakage.com/2009/03/05/random-leakage-9/" target="_blank">I posted anything of substance</a> out here.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s not that I don&#8217;t love blogging.  And it most certainly isn&#8217;t that I don&#8217;t like making videos and posting them here for my readers.  Because I still love doing both.</p>
<p>A planned episode of Snowy Sunday still sits on my hard drive, almost completed.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s another almost completed post where I will tell you all about my trip to Hawaii.</p>
<p>And there&#8217;s a bonus video of some footage I took in Hawaii that I&#8217;m sure everyone will like. [<small>a suggestion by a few of you</small>]</p>
<p>But there&#8217;s no hiding the obvious: I&#8217;ve been pretty quiet here this month.</p>
<p>In my defense, I do have some good reasons.</p>
<p>I was ordered not to blog or make videos while on vacation in Hawaii, which was an order I willingly obeyed.  I twittered some and updated Facebook from my phone a few times, but left the blogging to my guest hosts.</p>
<p>I can attribute some of it to being busy at my day job, which gets credit for doing a great job at saving almost all of the work on my projects until I returned back from Hawaii.  I&#8217;m catching up, but still have a monster load of work to do in a short period of time.</p>
<p>I have spent time working on some of my stories, one of which looks like it will see publication here soon [<small>more details coming soon</small>].</p>
<p>I also have my share of personal interruptions from all sides: family, friends and others who have various questions, physical needs [<small>moving desks for sister-in-law</small>] and help with random tech needs.  No complaints, but in reality, it&#8217;s time that takes me away from blogging.</p>
<p>I really didn&#8217;t plan to let this happen.  Perhaps I really needed a break, even after a vacation.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m not stressed about it.  Really, I&#8217;m not.  I&#8217;m more wanting to make sure that I don&#8217;t turn this into some unplanned, extended hiatus.  No worries&#8230; I don&#8217;t think that will happen.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be back to posting on a regular basis again [<small>which is at least two posts a week</small>].  In fact, I should have my Hawaii vacation recap post and a new Snowy Sunday video up here soon, [<small>hopefully before this coming Sunday</small>] as well as that bonus video I mentioned above.  But for now, this is what it is &#8211; for the last twenty days and most likely until the end of the month.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve got a great month planned in April for this place.  So sit tight, enjoy the temporary silence, and I will post again soon.  I promise.</p>
