While my laptop is out of order, and it has been for weeks now (!) my blogging ability has been affected. Writing on paper and then typing it up as soon as I get a chance on Clinton and Sarah's laptop is how I have been doing it and it's certainly not ideal. Usually my posting is motivated by that writing spark that hits but now instead of waiting for that spark I wait for Clinton and Sarah's laptop to be free and I jump on it. So here I am, Clinton and Sarah are out and I have no reason to post except that the laptop is free. But while I'm here let's see what I've got...
My mind is basically filled with two streams of thoughts right now. Firstly, the mundane but nagging thought I really need to return 'Watchmen' to the video shop (!) and secondly the slightly more interesting but probably premature to post about thought of my new friend who I 'met' yesterday.
Let's first tackle the the DVD conundrum, and as much as it shouldn't be, it really is a conundrum. It really comes down to procrastination, and I am sure I am not alone with this one. There are things in life, no matter how simple a task nor how much I need to do it, I just simply don't. A little man inside me tells me I really can't do it and I believe him, I believe him! He's a liar folks, don't believe a word he says. I know each day that passes and I don't return it costs me, and why would I pay when I don't need to? Craziness! So on the way home tonight I built myself up for returning it...and then Sarah and Clinton and therefore their car are not home, so another day's late fee is added on. Ah well, at least tonight it's a legit reason and I'm not listening to that liar. Ha, I love that I am writing about returning a video and late fees while The Kinks' 'Get Back in Line' plays in my ear, it speaks of important and real issues and I speak trivial, gibberish shit. Lovely! On that note, while we are here, August is 'Hands Up for the Homeless' month, buy yourself a copy of 'The Big issue,' get involved in the cause or even simply read an article on homelessness and break through the barriers of misconceptions and lack of understanding. There we go, redeemed myself.
That's enough about that, now the second train of thought I mentioned was my new friend. The reason I said it's premature is the same reason that I put 'met' in ''s. Because technically we haven't met as yet. To me he is a business card, a five minute phone call and some messages planning to meet. Yes, definitely premature. Let's just say, yay to meeting new friends, yay for seeing all those that surround me as potentials friends and yay for putting myself out there to make such friends.
Now, it is time to end this post. I am cold, hungry and tired, I think perhaps I will find some food and if not I will just crash and be asleep before my belly can get too grumpy at me. Hmmm, I wonder whether it's alright to have my what would be fifth protein shake for the day, that seems excessive, but I did just do two hours of gym perhaps that's justification? Now I am just typing my thoughts as the come, this is really not what this blog is for, I really must stop...now.
