My apologies.
I had a bad week (not a bad day, a bad week). I went AWOL. MIA. Under the covers. Into the cave. Below. Beneath. Behind. You name the hiding preposition, we were together.
And then I got the sweetest email... "Blog lacuna? Shines through the fog. This week, no sun?"
Back on track I was. That easy. Like getting a hug through the mail.
Isn't "lacuna" a lovely word? I looked it up - this is what wiki had to say:
Generally, a lacuna is a gap. The term may refer to:
- Lacuna (manuscripts), a missing section of text
- Lacuna (music), an extended silence in a piece of music
- Lacuna (linguistics), a lexical gap in a language
- Lacuna (law) is the lack of law or of a legal source addressing a situation
- Lacuna (histology), a small space containing an osteocyte in bone or chondrocyte in cartilage
- Lacuna model, a tool for unlocking culture differences or missing "gaps" in text
- Lacunar amnesia, in psychology, amnesia about a specific event
- Lacuna (geology), a large gap in the stratigraphic record, sometimes called a hiatus or unconformity
Upon reflection, it wasn't so much a blog lacuna as it was a life lacuna.
