Hello again. Now with fewer skeleton closets.

A day of the dead Ofrenda, or memorial altar, with themed art, candles, colorful skulls, photographs, offerings of food and drink

Dozens of photos of skeletons on my phone, but only one of a Macoun apple. I found adorable tiny Macouns that fall, and bought waytoomany. Some ended up on my annual Ofrenda.

I recently switched all of tenney.org over to WordPress.

I took a break from actively maintaining this site in 2016. It‘s since fallen further out of current web standards. Rather than attempting to bring decades of content up to spec, I took all of it offline. If you miss something in particular, contact me. I may eventually re-upload some of it as part of posts here, depending on how much I’m nudged, and whether any of us really need to relive it.

Time once again to learn how to blog.

I had an account on weblogs.com, way back before the Wayback. At least they didn’t cache the one post I miss, a poem about Macoun apples. Livejournal is still there. Now Dreamwidth, maybe; by then Myspace and Facebook and Twitter consumed all of our disposable time. Algorithms and takeovers have created a new “fediverse” that feels like a re-skinning of the “blogosphere” of a quarter-century ago, only with features we barely dared to imagine at the time.

Rereading my old posts might get me mired in nostalgia. Right. As if I wasn’t already mired when I bought this URL in 1996. Who knows? These days mining my past for content might get me a film deal. Or, hone my blogging… “skills”.
