This past week, my phone stopped working.

So did my Blackberry.

So did my work phone, since they haven’t yet configured it to ring here in Cali.

And, to add insult to already ridiculously incommunicadoed injury, my website went down.

Oh yes, Aubrey was SO in the pre-technology era, and has only started to re-emerge.

The company that hosted my site (my old company, which was kind enough to have it hosted for free for the past 5 years) had their server blow up. I’m not sure if there was an actual explosion, mind you, but regardless, aubreysabala.com was no more. Thankfully, I had backed up my files at the end of June so only lost about a month or so of posts (most of which were whiny and quasi-pointless) so all in all, am not too heartbroken. Still, having no outlet to express myself took its toll…let’s just say my freelance editor thinks I need a bit of inspiration.

So, as you’ll come to see in the following weeks, changes are occuring. I’m seeking my inspiration, off to figure out what it is I should be doing as well as where I should be doing it. I’m here in Cali ’til tomorrow, then off to London for a week, then back here for a month. And oh -that’s only the beginning.

They say that today is the first day of the rest of your life, and you know what, for once, I agree.
