Sometimes, despite the fact I spend all day thinking about things and mulling stuff. Or feeling things. When it comes to blogging I don’t want to put it down. Some of it is too private – I’m not particularly into baring my soul in public – some of it I just feel is too random, or pretentious. So it begs the question, who is my blog for? Me? Or people who might stumble on it? Hubris, I tell you!
So I’ve resolved to just write what I want to and think about it less.
Starting next time <.<

New theme… because… well just because, really. I was doing the updating the blog thing and I was getting bored of the old one. I might tweak this one! It’s always a good way to avoid actually writing on the blog whilst pretending to blog! Also the update failed to destroy said blog, yay! Nervous things, updates.

One of the things about having a blog is the spam. It’s relentless and surreal. Every now and then it is vaguely relevant to what you posted, but on the whole, completely and utterly unrelated. Makes you wonder why anyone bothers? I mean, is it really worth the effort? I guess so or people wouldn’t bother but then, I’m also slightly surprised that anyone would click through a spam message that did get onto blog comments on a blog. Maybe I’m just more paranoid about clicking than most? I don’t know! It foxes me!
PS, my dream spam on this post would be about this kind of spam.

Look it’s today and I’m posting again! Good grief, twice in a row. Anyway, I spent ages trying to make one computer work and succeeded fabulously. Then utterly broke another one in ten minutes beyond a simple rescue. Go me! I have achieved e-balance, ftw!
It also made me annoyed at not having disks for everything anymore. I used to horde them just in case. Actually I used to just horde in general, then periodically purge. So… yes, probably good that I don’t now!
Also! It was sunny today! And spring like! At last!

I think sometimes I turn the presence of a blog into an obligation.. and then when I am struggling with obligations generally, I react by ignoring my blog and not writing. So… perhaps I should see it as just this thing I put words into sometimes.

I guess part of my problem is I have written myself into a corner? I mean, the things I’ve mainly blogged about have some very particular subjects. I kind of meant this blog to be more general, after all… there is a lot more to me than these few subjects. So perhaps it should be just general ramblings and such.
Probably! I may even try this!

Sometimes I’m too busy doing not very much, making things in Second Life, but in a very creative way to be pointedly creative with words… sorry blog <.<

Well I pretty much shut up completely there no? Stuff going on, lack of things to say coherently (cough laziness cough). I feel like I might want to write again now though, so we shall see.
Favorite spam post left during the last month: “Andrea, really interesting post (link)” Surreal! I better go find Anrea’s post on my blog, maybe she can do more writing for me!
