Episode 1 – General Crap

Ok, Well. Why a podcast you ask.

I figured it was the next progression in My Insignificant Little Web Space. My blogging is lacking at the best of times. heck, My twitter updates beat me two weeks in a row..

Yes, I guess twitter is a form of blogging. But I think my blog needs a push.

Just sitting at home, by myself thinking about absolutely nothing in particular. Listening to the radio and occasionally trying to have a conversation with the cat. Which has never worked before but I still do it anyway. I have no idea why, I guess it’s the whole “talking” thing. I guess humans have need to communicate on a regular basis. I’m no psychologist but it sounded good.

Yeah, this is going to be one of those entries about “nothing” hahah.. Maybe it’s just me trying to keep my mind active, I don’t know. Maybe I’m loosing my mind. Maybe I’m just as bored as hell and need someone to interact with. Computers only go so far until the mind resets to the need of actually physically seeing someone and communicating verbally.

I guess I have hit the bottom of the barrel as far as my own thoughts go. Am I feeling lonely? no I don’t think so, the cat is keeping me company haha. well, for her own benefit anyway.

I’ve said it before elsewhere. I guess this is one of the joys of being self employed. The isolation can be rather depressing at times. Yeah, sometimes it’s nice not to have to deal with too many people. Though I think those times are very far and few between.

I’m typing this and I have no real idea of what the hell it is going to sound like to someone else reading it Oh well. There’s no real structure to it either. I just had the fleeting thought about going back over it and re-editing things. but I don’t think I’ll bother.

On a side note, The day started pretty good.. It is a lovely day outside, it is a little cool but we have plenty of sun and blue sky. Can’t complain about that on a Winters Day can I.

Being home alone with my own little mind sometimes is not that great. Motivation goes out the window after a while, Think I need to make some changes to my daily routine so I’m not staring at the same walls with absolutely nothing going through my mind waiting for the phone to ring. There’s only so much one can take. I guess this “recession” has to end sooner or later. hopefully sooner, mind you if it weren’t for the media would we really be in a recession? Makes you think. If the media didn’t keep telling people to “stop spending, we’re in a recession” would anyone really have noticed. Yeah, a few major businesses have gone under. But what was going on behind the scenes to get them to that state to begin with.

Yeah, I guess anyone who even remotely started reading this has given up. So I’m going to go find some lunch.

Hope you’re all having a better day than me.

I’ve been a bit slack as of late, as far as blogging goes. I guess the “creative juices” just haven’t been flowing. That and the fact life is probably not as adventurous at the moment.

Surely life isn’t that mundane at this point in time. I don’t think it is, I’m happy, I’m laughing and I think I’m having fun in general. Maybe it just seems that way. I’ve been pretty busy so maybe that has something to do with it. I’ve been doing a fair amount of work on various websites as of late. Maybe the cold weather has something to do with it, I don’t know. It’s Thursday morning, I’m sitting at the table with my laptop. Trying to keep warm. It’s 1 degree Celsius outside even though the sun is trying to break through the clouds. I don’t think I like winter anymore. yep, winters done with, bring back summer

Maybe it comes down to the fact that working for yourself is pretty isolating in general. While I would never change it for the world, I love working for myself. Friends are busy so haven’t seen them for a while. yeah, that could have something to do with it too. My partner is working really odd hours with exam marking and supervising clinics so time with her is at a premium at the moment too.

Now that I’ve started to think about it, No life really isn’t that mundane. It’s just a little little out of the norm compared to what it normally is. I guess I can’t really complain overall. It’s just time to make life fun again and get out and do stuff again. Seems I have fallen into a ditch that I just need to climb out of.

Hmmm, this entry is kind of looking like a blog about “nothing” and probably makes no sense what so ever. But hey, you get that occasionally I guess.

By now whoever is bothering to read this has already given up, so I think I’ll go make myself a nice cup of coffee and get back to doing some work. hmm, seems to be a trend happening here. Work, Eat & Sleep.. Yep, it’s time to just relax and have fun again. But it’ll have to wait until after work.

Have a great day everyone.

A friend recently posted this on a site I am involved with, and with his permission I would like to share it with you all. I was touched when I read this. I never got to say good bye to my cat so I hope this touches others in the same way it did me.

I had to put my old cat Mischief to sleep this morning… I shared her life for 18yrs not sure how old she actually was…
She was a wild cat that adopted me one day and never left…. till now…. good bye old friend.

She arrived in winter
Like a fresh autumn breeze
She was wild and starving
Curious and hopeful
A loving, trusting feline…

She was strong and unflinching
Vivacious and lively
She was radiant…she was youthful
She was ours…

We shared her raptures and sorrows
Her ups and her downs
Her life…

Now it is winter again..
But this time she has to go
Her spirit and essence will always live through
She will eternally remain within…
She will forever feel my love….

Sleep well my old friend

Thanks M109Rider, I really liked this.

It is just me, or are the weeks coming and going faster than a revolving door?

I must be having fun, can’t think of why though. Other than the usual work, eat & sleep, It’s not like i’ve done anything of real interest lately. We have caught some of the olympics on TV which has passed some time.

Mum and Dad came to stay last friday night, then headed down to Wellington on Saturday to see Grandma (dad’s mum). They came back Saturday evening then decided to drive back to Auckland. It would’ve been good to spend a bit more time with them but they both had to go back to work on Monday.

I got a txt from dad at about 1:30am on Sunday saying they’d made it to Taupo so I was able to sleep a bit better knowing they weren’t stuck some where in the middle of nowhere.

Seeing the amount of snow fall it was probably just as well, they managed to get through National Park, although they did get the van buried in snow. Unfortunately I don’t think there are photo’s of it, as it would’ve been too dark, but it would’ve been an interesting pic.

I guess I shouldn’t bore the world to death so I won’t waffle on anymore.
