Slate: Cleaned

I started a blog of this title when I thought my marriage was ending and I wanted to work out all the negative feelings I had for my wife in full view of anyone with an internet connection. Then we patched things up and I lost interest. Now the marriage really is ending but I'm still not interested in doing the sort of thing I had originally planned. I've deleted all the old entries and I'm starting from scratch. I used to blog regularly (a decade and change ago when having a blog was something that set me apart from everyone else); I thought it would be nice to get back in the habit.

I've kept the title, because I really like it. It was meant as an obscure reference to infidelity; I think it won't be too hard to nudge it into meaning something else. Deciding what to keep is an interesting process. Everything I have and everything I am are tainted; some things are still too precious to give up.

I found a bottle of white vinegar (Debi had it to clean her guinea pig cages); I think I'll descale my kettle.
