A Monumental Occasion

Woke up.
Fell out of bed.
Dragged a brush through the tentacles that are my morning hair.
Had a jog/swim/bike.
Took a shower. Sorry, no pictures.
Ate breakfast.
Paid previous day’s traffic fines.
Drove to work, ignoring all posted speed guidelines.
Went online at work instead of doing work.
Drove home in traffic.
Could have walked home faster.
Made dinner with/for family/friends.
Talked/laughed/sang all night.
Went to sleep.
Alone again.
Naturally.

I would actually prefer to write since I fear mountains and will not climb them.

Considering that I am barely literate, and I somehow manage to post some useless pap at least once a day, this suggests that any alternate endeavour will be difficult for me, if not downright dangerous. Biking fills me with fear for example and swimming reminds me of the womb and as you know, this is regression to the nth degree and this frightens me because I fear this perception might suggest that I have a screw loose somewhere.

I guess moving to Switzerland is one way to face your fear of mountains.

Mia;

I am happy that you are online. I enjoy your ascerbic wit, biting humour, painful confidence and your absolute lack of self abnigation.

It is always a pleasure to read your posts. Thanks and I hope you will post yet another hundred before you decide to put all of this in a book and then, I would be one to buy the book.

Now, do not let these positive comments go to your head and give you the impression that I am not wary of what I write since I have absolutely no doubt that if I erred somewhere, I would very quickly be blasted into intellectual oblivion.

PS. You have a remarkable background. I can see new perspectives in every sentence and I like this too.

Garry.

I agree with everything above except I don't know what is abnigation.

Thank you both. It's hard to make my head swell. I have 3 sisters who will readily bring me down from the sky.

Congrats. Hard to believe it's been a year. Even longer when you count the old server. A year ago you said you'd repeat some of the old blogs. What happened with that? There's some great stuff there and you could easily have a higher post count with some repeats. Self abnegation = self denial.

Mia said...

I re-posted a few from the old blog but I'm more interested in moving forward. I really don't care about post count. If I did I'd re-post everything.

Congratulations. Here's to another 100.
