Intermittent sprinkles
Blogging has been such a sporadic event for the last month. Some of the randomness can be attributed to the season, some to the approaching thesis, and some to traveling. I also lay a huge virginal chunk of my writing dilemma across the altars of my idols’ cancelled blogs. So many people that I followed vicariously have moved on to other things, and I wonder if I should do the same. When better writers, better thinkers, and better creators leave the arena, I have to wonder if I shouldn’t follow their lead. I think I’ll make that decision when my blogdaddy Sparky drops out of the race.
Another funky part of avoiding my blog is my increasingly annoying iBook. The only thing more rapid than aging in gay years is aging in computer years. Because of strange interactions with electromagnetic fields, my laptop screen is a lurid red. My touchpad is increasingly erratic, the hard drive is woefully small, and my battery has a six minute charge. I go almost daily to the Apple site, yet I know that I will wait for another six months. I want to pay off all credit card debts before I make another major purchase, and the current debacle with my house in Lubbock has killed my disposable income.
Of course, I sound all preachy about paying off credit card debt, yet I just took a wonderful trip to the UK, and I’m looking at going to Hawaii in February. I am the pot calling the kettle bald, or some other mix of cliché.
