Some final thoughts as I prepare myself to return in earnest to blogging with complete openness and honesty with myself.

What’s Coming On Xadara – Spring 2022
For the first time in a while, we take a quick look at what my plans are for this blog while I begin to get back “into the grove” of regular writing!
A New Coat Of Paint
This is an article about a theme change on a website. Seriously, there is nothing special to be had here… or is there?
15 Years of Xadara
Or, 15 years of doing the internet my way.
Year Of The Tiger
It’s the Year of the Tiger, and in this entry we take a look at my love of symbolism.
Project Phoenix
File this one under “Chris writing about the blog he barely updates” but, fuck it, I wanted to get October off to an optimistic start. As we all know, the past nearly two years hasn’t been all that great — Covid has been a constant pain in our ass and we’ve seen stupidity on top […]
I Started A Phone Company. No, Seriously.
All the way back in October of last year I wrote an entry called “I’m a Phreak” where I laid out what my most recent extreme interest has become — the old telephone network of the 20th century, and all that entails — the history, the technology, the stories, the rise and fall of The […]
An Update On Every Single Project I’m Working On
Given the past year has been one of me heavily neglecting this site (give or take, anyway,) I thought it might be good to do, for those interested. an update entry every major project I’m working on, so, if you’ve been wondering, well, here’s your answer. Right, no more fluff, let’s get right to it: […]
Let’s Get Back On Track
I’ve been neglecting this site for far too long. I know, I know, I’ve written probably a dozen entries this past year on just this subject, but it’s really starting to get to me that I go nearly a month between posts now, when I used to do near daily entries about something which caught […]
14 Years Of Xadara
5,113 days ago I decided that I should register a domain name and select a hosting provider for a website to host what was, at the time, nothing more than a collection of music game related files and some discussion forums. That site was the very one you’re on, www.xadara.com, and in that time things […]
What’s Coming For March 2021 On Xadara
Well, February was a complete wash as well. 2 whole articles in the past 28 days. That’s it. 2. I couldn’t be bothered to write a damn thing for the site, not even getting to the “Games with Gold” article on time! Much the same as January, I’ve been busy with some other projects combined […]
What’s Been Going On?
Ah, February has proven to be as dead a month here as January was. This isn’t for lack of desire, simply lack of time: I’ve simply been too busy with work and various other projects to actually write new entries. It hasn’t been a waste, however – I’ve made quite a bit of progress on […]
What’s Coming For February 2021 On Xadara
Alright, January was a complete wash – a whole 6 entries over the month. Why? Well, I’ll get to that in a follow up entry, but simply put I was damn busy with things and it was such a chaotic month on a whole that all I could do was sit back and watch the […]
36
Here we are, another birthday for me. This one was certainly a more introspective one than previous years for a few reasons. For starters, the way the past year has been for the world has obviously been a rather unique situation — never before have those of us alive today faced an event quite like […]
Well, It’s Been Quite A Month Hasn’t It?
Okay, January was supposed to be a pretty damned productive month for me, and it certainly has been, but not in so far as this website. I’ve certainly been neglecting things, but not for lack of caring — I’ve been far too busy to actually focus on Xadara for the past few weeks. Hell, I’m […]
