I'm changing the name of my blog, again.

I guess I should copy the current one here, so that if anyone ever visits this thing and refers to this post, it'll make sense. So...currently, the name is

éclaircir de l'eau

....Effervescent, formless, water. There is sanity in fluidity.



Hindsight: What a horrible attempt at being a hipster.

I guess I thought that I was being clever. Like, oo, my blog should be named clear water in french so that I can pretend that I'm some elitist and no one will understand what is means, but it means clarity, so that's kind of ironic that the meaning in somehow unclear.

I am unclear.

And then the tagline: Effervescent formless water. There is sanity in fluidity.

I honestly don't think that I always know what effervescent means. It's definitely a build-up word. There's not much build up there though.

And I don't know if there's sanity within fluidity. Although, I'm not very fluid, and I do feel a bit insane, doesn't prove the opposite is true.


So the new name: Dipping.

Clever, right?

Well, I got it from a short play I'm writing about suicide, and how undetectable it is. I named the play, dipping.

Morbid, huh?

Well, we're all kind of dipping...in and out of all our emotions, our passions, everything we do. We're all these swinging pendulums and we're back and forth. No one's every really certain of anything, and at the same time them uncertain, completely.


So, dipping.

Plus, I couldn't get away from being "philosophical" about it, and the face that this blog has no specific purpose or path. Being that the blog is random, I don't want a definitive name. I want something ambiguous, something that can move as I do, something fluid. (Although I'm currently not very fluid).


So, Dipping.

As we all are.


Now, as you were.
