Where is my muse?

At 150 posts, my blog updating has stalled. Whatever my initial motivations for writing were, they have evaporated in a cloud of ennui. This Friday, I'm off for 12 days in Europe, a part of the world that I've never been. The trip will cover Paris, London and Amsterdam - two great pillars of Europe and the New Orleans of the Old World.

I'm hoping that a good break like this will restore some of my former joie de vivre. Good humor is essential to the creative spirit. Pictures shall be forthcoming.
