			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>a couple of headfakes.  desires withdrawn.  and finally, this.  a new home.  after 9+ years of <a href="http://elscorcho.org">elscorcho.org</a> (my first domain name), i&#8217;ve finally gone international, creative, and above all, more self-centered.  and i&#8217;m on a real blogging platform now.  i used to reject that word, &#8216;blogging&#8217; &#8211; nitin and i used to argue about it in high school.  and now, here i am, accepting if not embracing it, on software made by someone else for this express purpose, in iceland.</p>
<p>it&#8217;s an interesting time to start clean and professional-like.  my fiancee is in washington, d.c. working for senator chuck schumer and helping confirm a new supreme court justice.  i&#8217;m in california working for a start-up in silicon valley.  we are doing exactly what we want to do, but far away from each other and thus exactly what we don&#8217;t want to do.  a summer of introspection is sure to follow.</p>
<p>i hope to mix in the classic elscorcho-style stories with photography, baseball (though not too much, as to keep <a href="http://about90feet.com">about90feet</a> afloat), and programming chatter.  when i finally get back to updating it, i&#8217;ll have photos on <a href="http://mytheoryontimetravel.org">mytheoryontimetravel</a> and in <a href="http://photos.elscorcho.org">the photo gallery</a>, though photography has taken a backseat recently to work and baseball.  and occcasional video game chatter here too, i&#8217;m sure.</p>
<p>(i don&#8217;t write that last paragraph for you, but for me &#8211; elscorcho lost its way and became stale, and i don&#8217;t want that to happen here just yet.)</p>
<p>anyway, here we are, and here i am, and here it goes.</p>
