To New Beginnings

As I've been working on putting the new site together, I've come to a sad realization. Perhaps I should've done backups, perhaps I should've done things in a different order. Regardless, I've gotten myself into this situation.

I have lost all of my old blog entries. There literally are no entries left. I managed to scrap one or two from posts on Google+ that had full summaries, but frankly the rest of them are hiding in the table of an old database somewhere. The amount of steps to go through to recover them almost seems like a waste of time.

So, here we are. Years and years of old blogs, gone. I can only hope that I find them at some point. As part of a long-term project, I'm interested in trying to piece the content of the old site back together on this new one. I had hundreds of blog entries, spanning all the way from when I was 15. That's six years of blogging, lovingly archived and moved from service to service.

The best I can do is try and recover the old entries from the one remaining database of my old Wordpress blog on my previous host. Technically, the database is still there, and I'd have to recreate a Wordpress instance somewhere. All for the sake of manually migrating posts.

So, in the meantime, here's to new tomorrows. Here's to the hopes that I will write a thousand new entries on here, to furnish my little home on the web with my experiences and thoughts.
