my own little fantasy bubble
if you haven't missed my last few entries, then you know I've had a busy week… nothing exciting, just work and meetings and household chores (which means loafing around the house distracting myself with music or TV while I try to remember to continue doing whatever chore it is I am working on), but still much to occupy my time away from the computer…
but I still about you and miss you (and hope you miss me too… I see you do in your comments)… that's the reason I started this blog, actually, so you could know what's going on and we can keep in touch and I can still get stuff done in life offline… this blog is like leaving you comments (except it saves me time when I need to save time… and leaving comments at your web space feels a bit awkward when some of you haven't updated your blogs in a week or longer and I'm the last few comments as it is and heck, some of you don't even have blogs)…
so with this blog, you get fresh news because I know you care and want to know (and if you are new to my little web world you are welcome to explore and care as much or as little as you wish… and if you let me know, I'll know and appreciate you and visit you when I have time too)… and if I wonder what I am doing here in lonely moments when I see little or no commenting here, well, hopefully at least one of you will remind me (thank you dear friends and the rest of you too)…
what happens if I sit down to surf or chat, especially if I start chatting, is I get nothing done offline and the last few weeks the laundry piled up and too many things around the offline world were neglected… especially my gym time (and that's too important to forget about)… so ultimately, this blog is for my health and welfare of the environment around me offline… vital to my continued existence, this blog is…
of course I would have more time if I simply stopped trying to keep in touch with all you far away people, but I'd miss you even more than I do now… at least now, as I write this entry, I can pretend you're right here listening and caring about me and what goes on in this life I occasionally call mine… it's my own little online fantasy bubble that lets me believe that even while I am alone in this world these days, I am not as alone cuz you are here…
thank you for caring about me… I feel less alone in this world knowing you do… and if you found this blog, which is an attempt at a relatively real time contact with you, let me know you're out there (cuz contact takes two, ya know… if comments are a pain, just call or drop me an email) and I'll thank you more personally too…
hope you are still finding more smiles than frowns along your way J

Yep, not quite the phone Mobile or not. Not quite a pint down the pub or not. But at least not like unwanted electronic mail. One can write one's thoughts, and comment on another's posts. Plus easier to collect one's thought. How many meetings does one only remember what one wanted to say later, and can't remember what was said. Here titbits are there to be read & reread. But posting should not become a chore, life is too full of chores. Laters ... Q
