And if I start a commotion
August 4th, 2008 byMy facebook status clearly states that I’m back in the blogging business. It’s a business now you see.
I used to blog for many reasons before. Many have been guessed but a few intentions still remain undiscovered. And I like that. I like that there are parts of me that even the most intelligent of my friends can’t guess. That I’m not so easy to read. That there is within me much that you cannot see.
It’s taken many many months to realize but I know that I still have the ability to surprise people. Blogging again. That has surprised many. Thank you for that.
And now I must return to the real world and live adventures so that I may swiftly blog about them and wait anxiously for the comments.

Masha’allah! I love the last line – so true isn’t it?

okay – last comment wasn’t spam -> I just realized I typed in the wrong URL!!! (I too am getting back into blogging and reading them!)

i don’t know anything about your facebook status, but i’m quite good at stalking people who are friends with you on facebook. (hi, anjum!)
the ‘blogging again’ definitely surprised ME.
welcome back, buddy. blogistan has missed you.
awaiting the stories of your adventures!
(in my head, i said it as ‘adwentures,’ and almost typed it as such. sigh. must esstop with the desi accent.)

you’re so lucky you have all your posts and comments intact, that’s awesome! there’s some really hilarious exchanges there.
and wow, it seems like a lifetime ago…
August 5th, 2008 at 10:27 pm
oh, and am glad you’re back. what with all some bloggers leaving and all.

It’s good to be back guys. Seems a lot has changed while I was away at the observatory. For one, Yasmine has developed an Indian accent.
Adnan, I think I have a copy of your one page blog somewhere in my data as well. Remember, the one with the true confessions of a something liar?
MuslimDad muslimdad muslimdad – keep writing. I always loved your stories man.

ditto to adnan’s comment. it does seem like a lifetime ago, all our exchanges there! but we are SO GLAD they are still there for us to read. imagine how crazy it will be read them in 5-10 years?
wait, dont imagine that — you might stop blogging again if you do!

Only >>>I<<< know what Waleed’s true intentions were for blogging, and all I’m going to say is that once he found himself a wife, the need for blogging suddenly ceased. Case in point: Waleed’s blog disappeared shortly after we were married, did it not? :p

@abez – then what does it mean since he’s officially returned? =P
@waleed – yes, i remember those days. =) i’ve imported some of them into the “new” blog.
